Gil Vicente are eager to claim a major scalp in the Primeira Liga round 17, but given Sporting’s four-game winning run in all competitions, our prediction leans toward a 2-1 away win. Os Galos have drawn each of their last four league matches, with the team being on a six-game winless run. Their expected goals of 1.66 at home is pretty high, but they will have a big fish to fry against the title holders. The fact that both Buatu and Konan are on international duty goes in favour of our betting angle.
The Lions, on the other hand, faced no difficulties in a 4-0 win over Rio Ave. Sporting are eager to melt Porto’s advantage in the Primeira Liga table and we predict that they will go all guns blazing at Gil Vicente. It has to be noted that the reigning champions have been scoring 2.20 goals per game on the road in recent weeks. Geny Catamo is on international duty with Mozambique, but the Lions have strength in depth.
Gil Vicente suit Sporting, with the capital club winning 82% of their last 22 encounters. Therefore, Away Win is our main betting tip for this matchup, alongside Over 2.5 goals (64% H2H) and Luis Suarez to Score.
This Portugal Primeira Liga match will be played on Friday 2 January 2026 at 18:45.
