Competition: Portugal Primeira Liga

Market: Both teams to score

Odds: 2/3 @ 888sport

In a real heavyweight battle at the top of the Primeira Liga table this weekend, Porto will host Sporting Lisbon on Friday night in a contest that could see chances at both ends of the pitch.

Starting with the hosts, last seen putting in another professional display on the road, Porto find themselves sat in pole position to clinch another Primeira Liga crown this year. In their 21 top-flight matchups this season, they have recorded 19 wins against a pair of defeats, scoring 55 and conceding 14 in return. Yet to taste a single domestic defeat throughout the 2021/22 campaign and mustering a points tally of 59, Porto open this weekend’s fixtures holding a five-point buffer at the top of the table. As for their recent run of results, last seen picking up a 2-0 win away at Arouca, Friday’s hosts have won each of their last 11 matchups across all formats. Likewise, it should also be noted, Porto have seen each of their last three home fixtures finish with both teams finding the net.

As for the visitors, also in the midst of their own recent purple patch, Sporting Lisbon will be desperate to lay down a marker in what’s a crucial showdown here. In their 21 Primeira Liga matchups so far this season, they have recorded 17 wins, two draws and two defeats, scoring 41 and conceding 13 in return. Managing to muster a points tally of 53, they open this weekend’s fixtures sat second in the table and five points adrift of Friday’s hosts. As for their recent run of results, last seen picking up a 2-0 win at home against Famalicao, Sporting have won each of their last four top-flight matchups. Likewise, it should also be highlighted, with the title outsiders seeing four of their last five contests across all formats finish with both teams finding the net, we’re backing a similar outcome here.
