Prediction: 1-2
Sporting
Famalicao and Sporting CP face each other at Estadio Municipal de Famalicao in what is expected to be a very exciting game. The Lisbon Lions made a flying start to the season, and it is more than obvious that they are eager to close the gap between Benfica and Porto. Sporting CP are eyeing their sixth consecutive win in the Primeira Liga, and it is no wonder bookies see them as favourites to win Saturday’s football match.
Pedro Goncalves, who scored a brace in the 2-1 win over Moreirense, will be the man to watch in the away team. Famalicao impressed in the Portuguese top flight last term, but they have been having their ups and downs in the new campaign. Seeing that the Lions are brimming with confidence ahead of Matchday 9, we believe that punters from all around the globe can find value in betting on the league leaders.
