Sporting managed to beat Midtjylland in two previous encounters, but will the Lions cruise to a victory on February 16? The answer is in our prediction.
Command Analysis
Sporting CP
PortugalSporting put up a decent performance in the Champions League, but a few mistakes left them behind Eintracht and Tottenham in the group standings. But Ruben Amorim's men managed to beat Marseille to a 3rd spot and advanced into the Europa League playoffs. The Lions are only 4th in the league standings, eight points behind the Champions League zone.
FC Midtjylland
DenmarkMidtjylland were not among the favourites for the play-off spot in Europa League - they were in the group with Lazio, Feyenoord and Sturm. However, the Wolves managed to beat Lazio and Sturm to a 2nd spot, but lost the top place to Feyenoord. Albert Capellas' team is only 7th in Danish Superliga standings, but visitors will surely fight for European places.

Tip and bets
Sporting are going through a weak season, but overall, they have what it takes to beat Midtjylland in the Europa League battle. Danish Superliga is still on holidays, so Midtjylland played only a few friendly games. Hosts have a huge advantage here.
Our prediction - Asian handicap (-1.5) on Sporting
Sporting tend to play offensively and usually score many goals at home - even Porto failed to keep a clean sheet at Jose Alvalade, while Braga conceded five goals. The Lions will surely dominate the game and Midtjylland have almost no chance to keep a clean sheet. We offer to place a bet on total over.
Our second bet is on total over three goals
