Sporting visits Vitoria Guimaraes to maintain their tenuous top-three aspirations with the hope of beating a resilient Vitoria Guimaraes.
When Vitória Guimaraes lost to FC Famalico in their last match, their terrible run of play continued. They have lost four of their last five games, going winless throughout that time.

On the other side, their visitor, Sporting CP gave a fantastic performance against Juventus in the middle of the week, they were unable to secure the victory they required to go to the Europa League semi-finals.
As they are now out of this competition, they will turn their attention to the Portuguese Primeira Liga, where they hope to qualify for the Champions League of next season.
Vitoria Guimaraes team news: Another player known as Tiago Silva was suspended so he is unavailable while Bamba, a defender is back to the squad after serving his suspension.
Sporting CP’s team news: Jovane Cabral and Paulinho are still out due to injury.
Fact Check: Sporting CP have beaten Vitoria de Guimaraes in their previous 5 encounters across all competitions.
Conclusion: Sporting has been playing well away from home in the Portuguese top division, going undefeated in six league games. I think they should beat the host again to increase their chances of participating in the Champions League next season.
Prediction: Sporting CP win @1.56
