Maritimo vs Sporting CP Preview & Prediction | 2022-23 Portuguese Primeira Liga | 08-01-2023

THE PREDICTION

The home team come into this on the back of a slender 1-1 draw away to Rio Ave in their most recent outing, prior to Christmas. Maritimo have won just one of their 18 matches so far this season across all competitions and they begin this weekend’s round of fixtures sitting in the bottom two and the automatic relegation places. They now face a Sporting CP side that, under the management of Ruben Amorim, have enjoyed three successive Primeira Liga matches as they push towards the top three and the UEFA Champions League spots. This should be a comfortable victory in favour of the away team.
