Juventus vs Sporting Prediction & Betting tips
Four days after an almost historic home defeat, the Italian champion Juventus has to be on top again. Because then Sporting Lisbon will be in the home alliance stage and the two clubs will be second in the Champions League Group D behind FC Barcelona. Sporting will surely have watched the Juventus home game against Lazio in the weekend, and perhaps have made some suggestions on how to break this real hot night.
Juventus :
Nothing is forever! This had to be Juventus at the weekend. Because after 57 (!) Undefeated competitive games in their own stadium, of which Juventus won fifty, there was again a defeat in the own living room on Saturday for the old lady. In the top game against Lazio Rome, everything went according to plan and to the break Juve actually higher than only 1: 0 had to lead. But in the middle two Lazio turned up and took the game seven times between the 47th and the 54th minute. It was only in the stoppage time that Juventus was able to prevent this historic homepipe, but the only substitute was Paulo Dybala on the post and the Argentinian also missed the penalty.
Already in the last Serie A game Dybala gave a penalty to Atalanta Bergamo just before the end, so Juventus had to be content with a 2: 2 and thus could not win two Serie A games in a row. The receipt: Only third place in the table with five points behind Naples. Juventus, however, has only a short time to shake, as they have three points against Sporting Lisbon on Wednesday. On the first day, the Italian double winners lost at FC Barcelona 3-0 and in the second round the finalist of the past Champions League season had a difficult 2-0 win against Olympiakos Piraeus. Since Juventus have to run twice on the remaining three games, a victory in the home match against the Portuguese would be of course an advantage.
Sporting :
Sporting Lisbon had a game like the rest of the Portuguese Primeira League on weekends. Sporting, on the other hand, was on the road last week, winning 4-2 on Thursday in the third round of the Portuguese Cup at the Amateur Club Oleiros. But you can not speak of a real dress-up at the class of your opponent. At least, Sporting Lisbon once again had a duty to win, which the club in the four previous games had not succeeded. There were three draws in the league and Ligapokal in three matches. Sporting Lisbon lost their first 1-0 win against FC Barcelona on the second day of the UEFA Champions League group stage, with the Catalans taking the lead have not done more than they had. On the first day of the match, Sporting Lisbon beat Olympiacos Piraeus 3-0 in the first half, with the Portuguese taking a couple of rounds and two more contenders.
In the domestic Primeira league, the third of the pre-season is still undefeated and occupies two points behind FC Porto with six wins and two draws. The lag in Porto, of which Sporting Lisbon have left the last Ligaspiel to go, is only two points. In Turin, the Portuguese are in the best position to get up to date and Sporting Lisbon are still unbeaten this season. In the last fourteen away games, the Portuguese conceded only one defeat – twelve victories, one draw.
