Sporting Lisbon finished second in the league, so they will at least participate in the Champions League qualifiers. Still, they ended the campaign well with three consecutive victories, each by a margin of 3+ goals. Now they have the chance to finish the season with a trophy and are a serious favorite to do so. The match will be in Lisbon, although not on Sporting's pitch, and the opponent is a team from the lower division.
Torense finished third in the second tier of Portugal. Thus, they will play a playoff to enter the elite, and this final comes right between the two playoff matches against Casa Pia, with the first ending 0:0, and Torense is the guest in the upcoming return leg next Thursday. Before that, they have a historic chance for triumph and will try to deliver a surprise, which will not be easy at all.
Prediction: -1.5 AH for SportingThere is indeed a reason for Sporting to be the absolute favorite in this final against a team from the lower division, who is also waiting for a crucial promotion playoff in just a few days. Sporting finished the season with convincing victories in the league, and I believe they are fully capable of achieving success by at least two goals against Torense now, clinching the cup.
