THE PREDICTION
Sporting Lisbon and Benfica look set for another thrilling Lisbon derby with both sides scoring plenty of goals in recent games. Reigning Primeira Liga champions Sporting beat Tondela 1-3 last Saturday to extend a five-match winning streak in the league, with 12 goals scored over that span, whilst Benfica beat Belenenses by the same scoreline to snap a two-match losing streak across all competitions. Benfica then went on to fight valiantly in their Champions league second leg trip to Liverpool, holding their hosts to a thrilling 3-3 draw that saw them lose the tie with their heads held high. Each of the last three meetings between these two have seen both teams score and a total of over 2.5 goals and that looks a reasonable combination to follow once again.
