Sporting vs Manchester City Prediction: Double Chance for the Hosts

Prediction for the UEFA Champions League match between Sporting vs Manchester City, which will take place on November 5th. Who will turn out to be stronger? Check the teams' conditions! Several betting options are available.

Sporting's last Champions League opponent was Sturm. The team led by Ruben Amorim had the upper hand in Austria, sending two unanswered goals. Earlier in the season, the Lions drew 1:1 with PSV and beat Lille 2:0. With seven points, the Lisbon side are currently placed eighth in the Champions League standings. In the Portuguese championship last weekend, Sporting won another convincing match, beating Estrela 5:1.

Manchester City had two disappointing performances, both ending in a 1:2 defeat. First, the team under Pep Guardiola lost away to Tottenham and was knocked out of the English League Cup. Then, the Citizens lost to Bournemouth on the road and yielded their lead in the EPL. In the Champions League, Man City is doing a bit better—two wins, one draw, and third place in the standings with seven points.

Sporting has a great chance to gain points in the upcoming game, as the City struggles with injuries and fatigue. The match will also be a special one for Ruben Amorim, as the Portuguese specialist is finishing his time at Sporting. After the next break, he'll officially take charge of another club, Manchester United. We think the match will be pretty intense, so we've put together a few suggestions to consider.
