Tip and bets

1.85Sporting's victory

Sporting are in great shape and so far have fully justified their status as the main favourites in the fight for the championship title. In terms of player selection, the Lions have a significant advantage over Porto and are quite capable of taking three points today – the Dragons have not lost any points in the championship yet, but in terms of the quality of football they are inferior to their opponents, it will be almost impossible to compete on equal terms with the Lions.

We think that the guests have no chance. The betting tip is a victory for Sporting . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.85

2.25total over three goals

Bet on total

Sporting plays attacking football and scores a lot - 17 goals have been scored in four matches this season. It is obvious that Porto's defense will have plenty of problems, but the "dragons" also feel confident in attack - six goals were scored in the last face-to-face meeting between the clubs, and today's match will most likely be productive.

Bet - total over three goals. This bet is offered for 2.25
