Prediction: 2-0
Famalicao
Sporting CP will be aiming to build on a thrilling 4-1 win over Belenenses when they take on Famalicao at Estadio Jose Alvalade. The Lions are desperate to keep their title hopes alive, and they are likely to go all guns blazing at Famalicao. The good news for the hosts is that Islam Slimani is back from international duty. Paulinho, who scored a brace in the midweek triumph, is widely expected to lead the line for the home side.
Famalicao, on the other hand, played out a goalless draw with Arouca in their last league match. Rui Pedro Silva’s troops are eager to escape the relegation zone, but given Sporting’s fine home record in the 2021/2022 Primeira Liga season, we predict that the visitors are going to return home empty-handed from the trip to Lisbon. January signing Jhonder Cadiz is widely expected to make his Famalicao debut against Sporting CP.

La Celeste won the trophy, with the team beating Paraguay 3-0 in the final of the competition at Estadio Monumental Antonio Vespucio Liberti in Buenos Aires.
