Santa Clara vs Sporting Prediction: Sporting is very unstable this seaason

Both teams enter in this match disappointed. Santa Clara is in the dangerous zone and only has one win this season. Sporting was humiliated in the Champions League match against Marseille and beside it he isn’t doing very good in the league, currently is on the 8th place with even 9 points less than the first placed Benfica. Sporting slowly is losing his chances for winning the domestic championship. Santa Clara this season is completely different from what it was last season and this season it is in real danger to being relegated even though last season Santa Clara finished on 7th place.

The host is currently on the 16th place with only 5 points in 8 matches. He has a win, 2 draws and 5 defeats, 5 goals scored and 9 conceded. Even though he is struggling from the beginning of the season, Santa Clara is playing tough football and knows how to make the opponents sweat especially at home.

The visitor doesn’t have much options if he wants to be at the top part of the table he must win in this match. Sporting in 8th on the table with 13 points in 8 matches, 4 wins, a draw and even 3 defeats. After the humiliating in the Champions League, he will need this win to reduce the pressure and the tense in the team and with the fans.

The visitors have much better squad and are better as a team than the host. However, we saw this season that Sporting isn’t stable as he used to be and he is losing many points where he is clear favorite for a win. In this match Sporting is again favorite and this time he should confirm it by winning the match.
