THE PREDICTION
Having won their last six games in all competitions – including the 1-4 victory over Besiktas on Matchday 3 – Sporting CP will be brimming with confidence heading into this fixture. With Dortmund and Ajax ahead of them in the table and with fixtures against those two teams to come in Matchdays 4 and 5, the Portuguese outfit know they have to pick up another three points here. Besiktas look a little out of their depth in this group and have not been playing well enough recently to inspire confidence in a positive result. A second consecutive win for Sporting CP is in the offing here.
