Gil Vicente can be proud of how their season has unfolded so far as they head into this clash sitting in 10th place after 14 games played. They are level on points with 11th-placed Rio Ave and are four points behind seventh-placed Casa Pia.
The Gilistas' last match in the league saw them beat Farense 1-0 away from home to make it two wins in a row. This is undeniably a significant improvement in form for a side that had lost four matches on the bounce.

Sporting CP
Form: WLLWW
Sporting CP still finds itself suffering from floundering performances. Despite securing two consecutive wins across all competitions, those victories weren't convincing for a side of their caliber. After 14 games played with 36 points accumulated, they find themselves one point adrift ahead of second-placed Benfica.
In their most recent match, they beat Santa Clara 2-1 at home in the Taca de Portugal round of 16. This comes after a five-goal thriller in the league that saw them defeat Boavista 3-2 at home to halt a two-match losing run. Away from home, they've been a formidable force, notching six wins from their last seven games.
Probable Starting XI
Formation: 3-4-3
Israel; Debast, Diomande, Reis; Catamo, Simoes, Hjulmand, Araujo; Trincao, Gyokeres, Quenda

Expert Betting Tips
Sporting CP has been a different team under the management of Joao Pereira, and I know that has been said numerous times now. I feel a change of management has yet to see the team adapt to his style of play, and that's why we are seeing a lot of floundering performances.
One aspect that has been visible aside from their declining offense is their faltering defense that has seen them concede a goal in each of their last six matches across all competitions. This makes me believe that even a Gil Vicente, who has not won a home game in this fixture since 2019, will be able to get on the scoreboard.
