THE PREDICTION

Sporting Lisbon settled some nerves with a 0-1 win away at Sporting Braga last Sunday to leave them a lead of six points at the top of the Primeira Liga table with five games to go. They host the side at the polar opposite end of the table but Nacional also improved their position last timeout with an impressive 1-0 victory over Vitoria Guimaraes. The bottom-half of the league is so crowded it would not be a huge surprise to see Nacional somehow escape the drop come the end of the season but their great escape is not likely to be aided at all with this trip. Sporting Lisbon remain unbeaten this season and they can win comfortably at home in a match that sees over 2.5 goals scored.
