Prediction: 0-1
Sporting
Farense will be aiming to make amends for a 1-0 loss to Maritimo when they take on Sporting CP on Matchday 27. Leoes de Faro are desperate to escape the relegation zone, but they will have a big fish to fry in Friday’s clash against the league leaders. Even though Jorge Costa should have a full squad to choose from, Farense are still seen as underdogs in the Estadio de Sao Luis clash.
The Lions, on the other hand, dropped four points in total in back-to-back draws with Moreirense and Famalicao. Sporting CP are now only six points clear of second-place Porto, meaning that they need to return to winning ways as soon as possible if they are to regain the domestic trophy. In the first half of the season the capital club defeated Farense 1-0, and given the importance of Friday’s clash for the league leaders, away win should be considered.
