Team News

Chaves
Sporting
  • João Correia call-up to Cape Verde National Squad was reverted and will boost Moreno' options here.
  • Guzzo and Vasco Fernandes were signed in midweek but are not expected to start yeat.
  • Pontelo made his debut last time around but should return to the bench as Coates and Quaresma are expected to return to the starting XI.
  • Adán, Edwards and Hjulmand, who were rested in midweek, should also get back to Starting XI.

Prediction

  • GD Chaves ended their 3-match losing run by holding FC Famalicão to a 2-2 draw. However, they remain rooted to the bottom of the table and will need to improve on their defensive process if they want to leave that position.
  • Sporting CP got back-to-back convincing wins to start the new year as they defeated Estoril by 5-1 before beating Tondela by 4-0. The Lions are full of confidence right now and will look to keep their spot at the top of the table here.
  • The visitors are the worst team to face right now and should have no problem to beat a porous Chaves defense, especially given the wonderful moment of Gyokeres.
