Sporting
Crossing a very good season. In the NOS League we find it in the second position, at a single point by the leader of Porto.
In the League Cup he won a group with Setubal, Maritimo and Belenenses. He’s done unbeaten.
The shape of the moment is also good. He now has a series of 10 consecutive matches without defeat, regardless of the competition. Barcelona is the last to beat her.
He stays excellent on the offensive this season. And the defense impressed, with an average under a goal scored in the championship match.
Dost is the scorer of the team, with 24 goals already this season.

FC Porto
It impresses all the planes and makes an excellent season. He is the leader in the NOS League, and in the UCL he went to the eighth.
In the League Cup he won a group in which he played against Leixoes, Rio Ave and Pacos Ferreira. He did not lose.
The moment form is also exceptional. He has won each of the last 10 games played, regardless of the competition.
In the championship he has the best attack and the strongest defense.
Direct meetings
FC Porto dominates this balance overall. However, it should be noted that he won only one of the previous five direct confrontations.
The latest dispute has ended without goals in October.

My tip for Sporting vs FC Porto
I foresee a very balanced match here and I would not wonder to see a result of equality.
The balance was also seen in the only direct confrontation this season, when not even a goal scored.
They face the best NOS league defenses, both with average underneath a goal in the match. We have two front bands in front that can hardly surprise.
We will witness a cup match, eliminatory, on neutral ground, with a very high pressure at this stage of the semifinals. The two coaches will certainly be cautious and will not seek to make a mistake in defending. Under these conditions, there are great chances for a green tip since the break.

Prediction: FC Porto win @ 2.40
