Sporting Lisbon vs Vizela Predictions
- Sporting Lisbon have won six of their seven home Primeira Liga matches this season.
- Sporting have scored three or more goals in all six of those victories.
- Vizela have conceded exactly two goals in four of their last six away league games.
Sporting score goals at home
Sporting Lisbon should consolidate their relatively lowly position of fourth in the table by beating Vizela at the Alvalade on Friday night.Ruben Amorim’s team are not having the best campaign away from home, but remain consistent enough in front of their own fans to warrant backing in this contest. Os Leoes have won six of their seven home games and scored at least three goals in all of those wins.
Their display in last week’s derby was encouraging, but they could not hold on to two leads in a game that finished 2-2 at the Luz.
Vizela can take pride, but not points
Vizela, meanwhile, are having a solid campaign and come into this game with three wins from their last four matches. They have competed well against the big boys with a 2-1 defeat at Benfica and a 1-0 home loss to Porto when the visitors scored deep in stoppage time.They could keep this close, but probably lack the quality to take anything more than pride away from Lisbon.
Sporting can win with over 2.5 goals in the game – as they have done six times at home this term. But a 2-1 correct score play may have better prospects than a 3-0 prediction this time because Vizela have scored in seven of their eight away league games to date.
