Sporting Lisbon vs Liverpool
The Liverpool Reds will play a friendly in the middle of this week, where they are challenged by Sporting Lisbon. This match will be held at Yankee Stadium (New York City). For the defending Champions League team last season, against Sporting Lisbon it was their third friendly match after previously against Sevilla and Borussia Dortmund.
But Juergen Klopp’s foster child suffered a 2-3 defeat from Borussia Dortmund and also lost 1-2 to Sevilla, it seems this is a problem for Liverpool because their young players are not as good as the first team. Also before against Sporting Lisbon, Liverpool should have been scheduled against Schalke 04 but were canceled. Liverpool still need a new strategy maturation before facing Manchester City in the Community Shield event.
Meanwhile in the camp of Sporting Lisbon, this is their 4th friendly match. Previously Sporting Lisbon had played 3 trial matches and the results were equally disappointing. Losing from the Rapperswil-Jona and Club Bruges KV was then held to a draw by FC Saint-Gall 1879. Similarly with Liverpool, Sporting Lisbon needed good results for capital to face Benfica in the Portuguese Super Cup.
Facing Sporting Lisbon, Liverpool are still without their flagship trio, Roberto Firmino, Sadio Mane and Mohamed Salah. However, despite this, Liverpool are believed to still have the chance to win rather than Sporting Lisbon because the players brought in by Liverpool are still many major players and even supersub scorers in the Champions League final D. Origi is also played. Possibly Sporting Lisbon will be defeated.
Our Prediction: 2
Odds: 1.56
