Sporting CP will look to make amends for the Champions League loss to Napoli when they face Braga in an eagerly-awaited Primeira Liga game. The Lions are eyeing their fourth consecutive league win, but Sunday’s game will be anything but a walk in the park for the reigning champions. With Eduardo Quaresma limping off with injury in the midweek defeat, Zeno Debast is widely expected to step up. Summer signing Luis Suarez is pushing for a start as well after scoring as a substitute in the Stadio Diego Armando Maradona defeat.
The Reds, on the other hand, suffered a shocking 1-0 loss to Nacional at the weekend and given their negative record at Estadio Jose Alvalade, we predict that the title holders are going to pick up all three points from Sunday’s derby. Defender Jonatas Noro should be the only absentee in the visiting team.
This Portugal Primeira Liga match will be played on Sunday 5 October 2025 at 19:15.
