Sporting CP and Benfica are in tight competition to secure the top spot of the Primeira Liga standings. Both are points level in the standings, but the number of defeats keeps Sporting CP at the second. However, the current recordings of Sporting look stunning and they will have high spirits to enter their upcoming league match against Rio Ave.

Sporting CP sealed a highly motivating 0-2 win over Moreirense to extend their winning streak to seven games in the league.
The Sporting defense has not leaked goals in four of the past five league matches while their offense scored 23 goals in the stretch.
Rio Ave was winless in five of the past six league matches and will enter this match following a 2-1 defeat against Famalicao.

The exceptional consistency of Sporting CP helped them to climb into the second position, points level with Benfica sitting at first. Everything has been going perfectly for Sporting in the league of late. Especially in the last seven league matches, their offensive line and defensive line have shown some stellar performances. Out of which, their Swedish striker Gyokeres stands out as he scored 10 goals in the last 10 matches of Sporting across all competitions. By the looks of things, their hosting rivals Rio Ave is unlikely to alter the Sporting CP’s winning run with an inconsistent form on Sunday.

Recent Meetings

Sporting CP is on a seven-match unbeaten streak against Rio Ave in the head-to-head tradition.
The reverse fixture ended in a 2-0 win for Sporting CP and it was their fifth straight clean sheet victory against Rio Ave.
Sporting scored 10 goals in the past five clashes against hosting Rio Ave at this venue.

Rio Ave vs Sporting CP Prediction

This match has goals in it. But not from both ends, as the visiting Sporting CP has a strong defensive line along with a stunning offensive line. Since they have bagged a set of clean sheet victories, our main betting pick for this match will be Sporting CP to win and both teams to score no.

Moving on, Gyokeres is on an exceptional goal-scoring form and we can expect him to score anytime here. You can also pick over 2.5 goals which are priced at an attractive 1.70 odds considering the impressive offensive line of Sporting CP.
