Sporting CP and Porto will face each other in the Portuguese League Cup semi-finals. The match will start at 19:45.
Sporting CP :
Sporting CP lost 2-0 to Maritimo in the Portugal Cup last week and was eliminated from the cup. They also drew 1-1 in the Rio Ave match they played in the league over the weekend. Before the Porkekiz League Cup, where they will play with Porto, their closest rival in the championship, they played 7 matches; They left with 5 wins and 2 draws. Things won’t be easy at all against Porto in form. At Ruben Amorim and his team, Luiz Phellype due to injury; Nuno Mendes, Andraz Sporar and Luiz Neto will also not be able to take their place in the team because the corona virus results are positive.
Porto :
Porto drew with Benfica at home last week, ending a 7-game streak. Mehdi Taremi, who scored Porto’s goal in the match, was out of the game with a red card in the 73rd minute. After this minute, Porto tried to keep the score and managed to get 1 point from his opponent. In the Portuguese Cup, they beat Paços Ferreira in the quarterfinals 2-1 and matched with Sporting CP. Before the fight between the two arch rivals in Porto, Ivan Marcano and Mouhamed Mbye for their injuries; As a result of positive corona virus results in Carraça and Otavio; Mehdi Taremi will not be able to take their place in the team due to the red card penalty.
There are important shortcomings in both teams. I think we will watch a cautious fight and at least the first half will end in a draw.
PREDICTION: Both teams to score / YES @ 1,66
