Preview

On December 5, Benfica are hosting Sporting in the Liga Portugal, with kickoff at 20:15 UTC.

4 months after their last encounter in Supercup, Benfica and Sporting renew their battle. In their last meeting, Benfica secured a 0-1 win. Benfica head into this game after their recent draw with Casa Pia last Sunday in the Liga Portugal. They face a packed schedule leading up to their match against Sporting though, with fixtures including Nacional in Liga Portugal and Ajax in UEFA Champions League, fixtures that are likely to influence their form and fitness ahead of their clash with Sporting.

Sporting enter the match on a positive note, having secured a victory over Santa Clara in their last outing, having maintained an unbeaten streak stretching to eight matches. Before Benfica, their schedule includes Estrela Amadora in Liga Portugal and Club Brugge in UEFA Champions League, all of which will test their form and squad depth before facing Benfica.

In this Liga Portugal showdown, the spotlight will fall on the players who have been pivotal for Benfica and Sporting throughout the campaign. The attacking efforts of Benfica, guided by Jose Mourinho, have been driven by Vangelis Pavlidis, the team’s primary goal threat, and Georgiy Sudakov, both of whom have delivered in crucial moments. Pavlidis has already scored nine goals in Liga Portugal this season, while also leading the team in assists, having set up three goals this campaign. Benfica’s attacking depth is further showcased by Franjo Ivanovic, Fredrik Aursnes and Andreas Schjelderup, who have each made valuable contributions this season.

Meanwhile, Pedro Goncalves and Luis Suarez have been pivotal for Sporting’s attack, carefully orchestrated by Rui Borges, combining to deliver important goals and assists. Goncalves leads Sporting’s scoring charts in Liga Portugal this season with eight goals, and has also shown his creativity, leading the team with five assists this campaign. Francisco Trincao, Geovany Quenda and Morten Hjulmand have also played key roles, contributing with goals and assists to fuel Sporting’s attack.
