Betting On Sporting Lisbon Recently, this fixture has only favoured FC Porto, and that is something Sporting Lisbon will seek to end as they get ready for this match. They have already lost to Porto this season, conceding a 3-0 lead to lose 4-3 in extra time.  Such a mistake should spur Sporting to want to avenge it. It will all come down to how strong their defence is. The last league match between these two rivals finished in a notable 2-2 draw. Their most recent matches also ended in draws at 90 minutes. Lisbon will hope to finish the match with 11 men after they had two players sent off in two of their last three matches against Porto.  Betting On FC Porto This meeting comes weeks after FC Porto and Sporting Lisbon played in the Super Cup match to kick off the new football season. In that match, held at the start of August, Porto managed a remarkable comeback from 3-0 down to a 4-3 victory.  The last time this fixture produced seven goals was over 10 years ago, with Porto winning back then. This just intensified the rivalry between these two clubs and today’s game should be thrilling as a result. The two clubs are tied at the top of the table with nine points, just separated by goal difference which puts Sporting above Porto.  MatchPlug Prediction For Sporting VS FC Porto  Sporting and FC Porto’s rivalry reached new levels in the Super Cup meeting where seven goals were scored. Porto made a stunning comeback from 3-0 down to steal the day. Analysing both team’s scoring runs ahead of this game, all indications point to another high scoring meeting. The prediction is for this match to produce over 2.5 goals.  Final Prediction: Over 2.5 goals.

football predictions today: benfica vs moreirense

Football Predictions Today: Benfica VS Moreirense Sure Tips

Benfica VS Moreirense will begin the fourth week of the Portuguese Primeira Liga action. Both clubs will meet on Friday, with the hosts Moreirense ranking one spot below Benfica.  MatchPlug has the Accurate Football Predictions, picks, and odds for Benfica VS Moreirense. We are a Sure Win Prediction Site where you can find Primeira Liga previews.  Predictions and Betting Preview For Benfica VS Moreirense  Odds provided by 1XBet. Betting On Benfica Benfica have improved after a poor start to the season. Their opening game ended in a 2-0 surprising loss at Famalicão. They however made a comeback by posting straight wins in the following two matches. Benfica first won Casa Pia 3-0 at home, then they defeated Estrela 1-0 in the most recent match. After consecutive home games, Benfica will hope to recreate the same result on the road. They are undefeated in the last eight trips to Moreirense, with just three ending in draws. That result will have them hopeful, as they plan to end their three winless away games in the league.  Betting On Moreirense A winless run of 10 games against Benfica puts Moreirense as the underdogs in this match. However, the hosts will view themselves highly, after winning two of their three opening matches. None of those matches brought a clean sheet, meaning they still have work to do. Moreirense’s recent fixture brought their unbeaten start to a campaign to a halt.  They were undefeated 3-1 at Sporting Braga with Luis Asué scoring his third goal in so many matches. Moreirense did not score in the last two meetings with Benfiica, so returns in attack will be a plus.  MatchPlug Prediction For Benfica VS Moreirense  Moreirense will hope to win this match, even if it’s against an opponent as strong as Benfica. But, their home form against Benfica does not inspire much confidence. Moreirense have five defeats the last eight times they hosted Benfica.  Final Prediction: Benfica Moneyline.

fc porto manager answers questions about francisco conceição

FC Porto manager answers questions about Francisco Conceição

Juventus has taken their interest in Francisco Conceição up a notch, and his manager has shared some information about the potential transfer. FC Porto was to get a good amount from his departure and has rejected Juventus’ first offer to sign Conceição. Thiago Motta wants the winger on his squad, and he is eager to add him to his club at the Allianz Stadium. But, Porto seemed to be getting ready for the new season with Conceição in their plans. Vitor Bruno, insists that he does not know much about Juve’s interest in the winger’s future. The Porto manager said, Conceição is not available to play because of an injury. A quote by Tuttomercatoweb said: “Whether there are negotiations or not, I honestly don’t know. He’s had a muscle problem since Tuesday, it’s not a taboo. There’s no deception here, we hope that tomorrow he can join the working group and then return to full strength next week. If he’s in negotiations I can’t tell you”. Juventus responded by saying that managers may not always be the best people to ask information about a player’s future and Conceição is no different.  If Porto agrees to a deal with Juve, all the player needs to do is tell the manager that he is leaving, and the manager will adjust their plans accordingly.

man utd's alvaro fernandez-is-benficas next priority target

Man Utd’s Alvaro Fernandez is Benfica’s next priority target

Manchester United left-back Alvaro Fernandez is on the priority target list this month for Benfica, according to Portugese publication Record (page 11). Benfica recently entered an agreement with Santos to sign striker Marcos Leonardo. They agreed to pay €18m for his services.  Record claims that Benfica will now face Fernandez, who is presently on a season-long loan deal at Granada from the Red Devils. The club has discussed with Granada and United. They intend to sign the Spaniard for €7m while parting ways with David Jurasek. Fernadez has delivered less than 500 La Liga minutes for Granada which is struggling this campaign, but he began the 2-0 victory over Cadiz on Wednesday. Fernandez may leave Man Utd this winter Fernandez was with United during pre-season last summer, but he has not yet made a competitive appearance for them.  There was a suggestion that he would stay after Tyrell Malacia injured his knee, but United chose to sign Sergio Reguilon on loan from Tottenham Hotspur. Reguilon has today returned to Spurs after a break clause was triggered in his contract, but this is unlikely to change the position of Fernandez. Malacia is expected to return some time this month. Besides him, United have Luke Shaw and Diogo Dalot, who can fit nicely at left-back. Therefore, there is no surprise that Fernandez will be leaving the club. Experts also report that, Manchester may want a sell-on clause to be added as part of the deal. If Fernandez becomes a top defender in future, the Red Devils could directly benefit from his success as Befica sets high price tags.

arsenal must respect porto to win champions league

Arsenal must respect FC Porto to keep Champions League dream alive

Arsenal is set to face FC Porto in the Champions League Round of 16. According to the Gunners’ sporting director, Edu Gaspar, they must be prepared before playing against the Portugese giants. Edu said the following things about the Champions League Round of 16 draw at the UEFA’s headquarters in Nyon, Switzerland. “We are going to play against a club that is very used to playing in the competition because they play in it every single year and they have a lot of players as well with big experience,” said Edu via Arsenal.com. “We have to understand how we are going to play and respect them as much as we can. We will play our game and see if we can go through this stage. We can see how they are playing, how organised they are, and the players that they have. “Porto is a club that you have to be really prepared to play against or we’ll have problems, so what we have to concentrate on is maintaining our levels and the way we are playing.” Arsenal took the lead for the Champions League group stages, unperturbed by their inexperience. In six games, they won four times, drew one, and lost one. They only got a spot in the Round of 16 by Match Day 5, amassing 12 points, which shows that despite their performance on Match Day 6 (they drew with PSV), they would win Group B. So, can the Gunners win the Champions League over FC Porto? They might, and Mikel Arterta said that after the 1-1 draw with PSV on Match Day 6, his sights has been on the Champions League crown. Porto is just one hurdle in that race.  “What I’ve seen is that we can compete at this level, and we came top of the group, which is very important. Especially the way we did it with a game in hand. We have to win game by game, and we arrive again in February,” Arteta replied, when asked if he had seen enough for Arsenal to win the Champions League.
