Sporting take on the visitors Juventus at “Estadio Jose Alvalade” in the matchday four of the UEFA Champions League Group stage. The game will be played in Lisbon on Tuesday, October 31st.
Sporting have won their two recent clashes which preceded last Sunday fight: 5:1 against Chaves and 1:0 over Rio Ave. After 10 encounters played in the Portugal’s Primeira Liga, “Leoes” sit on the second place in the standing with 26 points gained and 22-5 goal difference, without having tasted any defeat in the domestic tournaments. In regards to the UEFA Champions League, Sporting managed to pick up three points with four goals for and five goals against in three gameweeks. The team lost 1:2 to Juventus in the latest Eurocup battle played in Italy, having conceded the crucial goal on the 84th minute of the clash. The Portuguese side got four triumphs, three draws and single loss with only three goals against and 10 goals for in eight encounters played in front of its fans in this season.

Meanwhile, Juventus won four recent matches of the season, having started with the UEFA Champions League fight against Sporting and then went on in the Italian Serie A with the wins over Udinese 6:2, Spal 4:1 and AC Milan 2:0. With 11 Serie A rounds behind, “La Vecchia Signora” shares the first-second positions with Napoli, having earned 28 points with 33-10 goal difference. After three clashes played in the UEFA Champions League, the Italians settle on the second position in Group D with six points gained with the upcoming clash being a decisive one for the club. All in all, Juventus conducted six games on the road in this season recording four victories, single draw and one defeat in them.
The upcoming battle in Lisbon promises to be rather exciting, however, I don’t believe that the hosting side has enough mastery and class to beat the Italian grand.
Prediction for the match: Juventus to win with 0.0 Asian handicap.
