Sporting CP vs Moreirense Match Preview

Round 6 of Liga Portugal will open its curtain with one of the most intriguing fixtures that have occurred so far this season. Two evenly matched sides, Sporting and Moreirense will clash on Monday. Both teams have four victories and one loss from five Liga Portugal matches at the beginning. And what makes Sporting superior is surely their goal figures.

Sporting, as ever, boasts the season’s best attack that has bagged 15 goals in five opening league matches. They would have had a 5/5 start but for the FC Porto game that provided them with the odd one. It was a game that everybody predicted Sporting to win but Porto’s gallant performance put an end to Sporting’s hopes. Though they recovered with a 1-2 victory over Famalicao, the show of big win that Sporting presented prior wasn’t on display in the game.

This is certainly not a match they can shoot blindly for an appropriate big victory as Moreirense also possess the same winning consistency. But they had an easier path thus far in this campaign and this is the very first proper tough test for them thus far in this campaign. The teams they’ve played thus far are Rio Ave, Alverca, Santa Clara, Gil Vicente and Guimaraes. They also lost to Gil Vicente.

Increasing to that, it has been a seldom opportunity that Sporting lost a match against Moreirense in the past two decades. To place a figure, only one win is what Moreirense possesses against Sporting in the past 20+ encounters. The 100% winning record of Sporting in this ground makes life difficult for the Moreirense team. So, nice day for the home fans is anticipated at Estadio Jose Alvalade on Monday.

Sporting CP vs Moreirense Prediction

Beating Arouca with a 6-0 margin and to lose to FC Porto 1-2 is surely an irregular performance particularly in view of Sporting’s home support. Moreover, the most frequent result within the previous nine games at home is Sporting winning. A team of that standing will not look for anything but a win after losing.

Moreirense, who won and lost one of their two away league matches, appears a good bait for Sporting CP. The history of this derby paints a clear picture and Sporting’s home record of zero defeats is more than sufficient to wrap up this match as another victory for them over Moreirense.

Sporting attack is the season’s best with 15 goals netted in five games so far. They possess a two-match winning streak against Moreirense at home scoring 3 goals. And the most recent of them is a 3-1 score. Based on current trends, we anticipate that Sporting will bank another 3-1 victory over this Moreirense side on Sunday. We included one from Moreirense not only due to their attack being consistent but also Sporting’s defense, which conceded goals in the previous three league matches consecutively.
