ℹ️ Team News: Estrela Amadora

Nearly everyone is up for selection, with just the sole fitness concern for the Estrela Amadora manager João Nuno to contend with from of an almost fully healthy set of players. Jefferson Encada (Muscle injury) won’t play.

It’s our opinion that Estrela Amadora could line up in a 4-3-3 system with Renan Ribeiro, Max Scholze, Luan Patrick, Bernardo Schappo, Bruno Langa, Eddy Doue, Alex Sola, Kevin Hoeoeg Jansson, Abraham Marcus, Rodrigo Pinho and Ianis Stoica.

📋 Team News: Sporting Lisbon

Sporting Lisbon manager Rui Borges has multiple availability issues to deal with. Luís Guilherme (Ankle sprain) and Fotis Ioannidis (Inner ligament injury) are not able to play.

It’s our belief that Sportinguistas could decide to make use of a 4-2-3-1 formation using Rui Silva, Georgios Vagiannidis, Eduardo Quaresma, Zeno Debast, Ricardo Mangas, Daniel Braganca, Hidemasa Morita, Geny Catamo, Trincao, Pedro Goncalves and Rafael Nel.

✨ Prediction

In our opinion, Estrela Amadora have the ability to get a goal against this Sporting Lisbon team, although just one goal likely won’t prevent them from conceding a couple at the other end.

We’re therefore tipping a very close game with a 1-2 winning score for Sporting Lisbon when the referee blows the final whistle. It should be a decent one.
