Sporting CP Sporting Braga betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The difference in performance between the two teams, both in terms of the process of creating an offensive game, and in terms of defensive cohesion, has been notorious, so a match dominated by Sporting is expected, even because of the need to win in order not to lose its stand in the race for 1st place. Braga has been too fickle, so they should have problems to prevent the “lions” from creating more and better scoring opportunities and end up justifying the three points.

Analysis Sporting CP

The home team is currently in the 2nd position of the league, with 44 points won, after 15 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Santa Clara, by (3‑2). In the last match, they won in an away match against Vizela, by (0‑2). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive levels in home and away matches, since in the last 30 matches they register 11 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses in away matches; against 13 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss at their stadium. In the last 9 home league matches Sporting CP has a record of 8 wins and 1 draw, so they have won 25 points out of 27 possible.

They have won the last 6 home matches and haven't lost any of the last 9 home matches for this competition. In their home league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 1‑0 (5 out of 9 matches). They have presented defensive consistency, since they have only suffered goals in 3 of the last 10 matches, and their offense has scored frequently, since they have scored goals in all of the last 10 matches for this competition. In their home matches for this competition there is a tendency for few goals, since 7 of the last 9 matches have ended with Under 2,5 goals. They have been able to score first and have done so in 16 of the last 18 matches for the Primeira Liga, they have reached half‑time in advantage in 9 of those 16 matches and have held on to the lead until the end of the 90' in 14 of them.

The Sporting team has made an interesting path in the fight for the objective of revalidating the title of national champion and goes to the match in the 2nd place of the league, with 47 points, six above Benfica and three behind FC Porto. In the last round of the championship, the team led by coach Rúben Amorim returned to triumphs for the Bwin League, reacting in the best way to the defeat against Santa Clara (3-2) two rounds ago. On the visit to Vizela, Sporting didn’t even get into the match in the best way, but Pedro Gonçalves’ goal (28’) launched the team into a good performance, reinforced with another goal before the break, by Daniel Bragança (42’). In this way, the “lions” reached the mark of two consecutive victories, after the rout against Leça (0-4) in the quarter-finals of the Portuguese Cup.

Confirmed Lineup: Adán, Sebastián Coates, Ricardo Esgaio, Gonçalo Bernardo Inácio, Zouhair Feddal, Matheus Reis, Pote, Pablo Sarabia, João Palhinha, Matheus Nunes, Paulinho.
Coach: R. Amorim.

Analysis Braga

The away team is currently in the 4th position of the league, with 32 points won, after 9 wins, 5 draws and 4 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in a home match against Famalicão, by (2‑2). In the last match, they lost in a home match against Marítimo, by (0‑1). This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, stronger with the help of its supporters, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 2 draws and 7 losses in away matches, with 25 goals scored and 23 conceded; against 8 wins, 5 draws and 2 losses at their stadium, with 32 goals scored and 13 conceded. Their last away match for this competition ended in a win by (0‑6) against Arouca. In the last 8 away league matches Braga has a record of 4 wins, 2 draws and 2 losses, so they have won 14 points out of 24 possible. In their away league matches the most frequent result at half‑time was the 0‑0 (3 out of 8 matches). Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 8 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 18 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 5 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

Braga's team has been slightly below expectations in this edition of the Liga Portugal Bwin, where it occupies the 3rd place in the league, with 32 points, nine behind Benfica and with an advantage of five over Gil Vicente. With great difficulty to maintain a consistent winning record in the last month and a half, Braga goes to the match after two bouts without being able to win in the championship, and playing on both occasions at home. After the 2-2 draw against Famalicão, the Minho team once again disappointed the expectations of their own fans, falling against Marítimo (0-1), with a goal conceded at the end of the bout, at the 89th minute of the match. In terms of exhibition, Braga even created several opportunities, but faulted in the finishing and, already in desperation to reach the three points, ended up conceding a goal and not grabbing a single point.

Confirmed Lineup: Matheus, Bruno Rodrigues, Diogo Leite, Francisco Moura, Fabiano, Vitor Tormena, André Castro, Ricardo Horta, Almoatasembellah Ali Mohamed, Wenderson Galeno, Vítor Manuel Carvalho Oliveira.
Coach: R. Gomes Duarte.
