Preview –

One of Portuguese giants Sporting Lisbon will take on Rio Ave and they are easily the favorites in this match. Sporting Lisbon which is also known as Sporting CP is simply the better team here and they have excellent record against this opponent. At the moment they are behind by 3 points but they also played 1 match less from the top team. Basically, if they win this match then they have a chance to leap to the first place. Thus they will come at this match with everything they have and most probably they will be able to win this match quite easily.

Rio Ave is the home team in this match and in football, the home team always has an edge. However, that edge will most likely not be enough to get them a win but if they play really well then they might be able to get a draw or even get very close to winning. They will aim for that and play this match as the underdogs.

Prediction –

We predict that Rio Ave will loose this match and the scorecard maybe 2-0.
