Prediction: 1-1
Sporting
Thanks to a 2-1 win over Santa Clara, Sporting CP moved one step closer to winning the Primeira Liga trophy. The Lisbon Lions are enjoying a season to remember, and they must be high on spirits ahead of the trip to Viseu District. Talented midfielder Pedro Goncalves, who scored his 15th goal of the season at the weekend, will be the man to keep an eye on in the away team. Both Paulinho and Porro have been struggling with injuries of late, and they are unlikely to feature against Tondela.
Pako Ayestaran’s men, on the other hand, continue with their habit of producing much better showings at home than on the travels, with the team eyeing their sixth consecutive win on home soil. Tondela are only five points clear of the relegation zone, and seeing that the league leaders would be happy with one point from the match as well, share of spoils is on the cards.
