Sporting Lisbon vs PSV Eindhoven
The fifth week of the Europa League will be a crucial period for Sporting CP to maintain the top of Group D. They will face PSV Eindhoven, who are currently trailing in third place with just two points. Therefore, the clash at the Estadio Jose Alvalade will be hot.
The condition was worsened by LASK competing in second place with the same number of points as PSV Eindhoven, which is 7 points. The problem is, this team will face the weakest participant this week, Rosenborg, who has so far not reaped any points. So, the chance for victory is huge.
Luckily, Sporting CP brought a positive chart ahead of this duel after winning two consecutive matches, namely against Rosenborg (0-2) in the previous week, then against Belenenses SAD (2-0) in the Portuguese League competition.
The trend will try to be transmitted to tomorrow’s match to face PSV Eindhoven; Dutch representatives had experienced a crisis never won for up to 6 consecutive games before the problem stopped Sunday (24/11) then when winning 2-1 over SC Heerenveen. Of course they will try their best not to go back there.
PSV Eindhoven won 3-2 in the first round, but tomorrow’s visit is predicted to be more difficult because they have never performed at Alvalade to this day. This fact is expected to be able to be used by Sporting CP to make amends, while maintaining its peak.
Our Prediction: 1
Odds: 2.55
