THE PREDICTION

Tondela fell to yet another heavy defeat in the Primeira Liga last time out, this time in a 3-0 defeat at Portimonense, but their recent home form has been incredible with a five-match winning streak setting up the potential for an upset here. Travelling Sporting Lisbon finished nine points clear at the top of the table after last weekend’s fixtures, where they beat Santa Clara 2-1 at home at the death with a 90th minute winner. A 0-0 draw away at Porto the match before suggests the leaders could be got at here and Tondela have not lost a league match at Estádio João Cardoso since last November to put some doubt around this result. Furthermore, Tondela have actually won the last two league meetings on their turf 1-0 and 2-1 back in 2019. As a one-off, you could be forgiven for picking the hosts to put in a real shock here. The advisable option, though, is for both teams to score in a win for the leaders.
