Rakow – Sporting CP : Preview & Prediction
Sporting Lisbon travel to Rakow Czestochowa on Thursday in a bid to return to winning ways in the Europa League. The visitors currently occupy second place in Group E, while the hosts are bottom of the table with 0 points. Rakow Czestochowa’s debut in the group phase is not going according to plan. After losing their opening two games, Dawid Szwarga’s men must win if they are to qualify for the last 16. The Polish champions’ inconsistent form this season has also affected their start to the domestic championship. Rakow have won just 3 of their last 7 games, the other four all ending in defeat. Last weekend, they lost 2-1 at Gornik Zabre. For their part, Sporting Lisbon are in a much better position, dominating their opponents. They have lost just one of their 11 games this season, winning 9 of them. Their only defeat came in the last edition of the Europa League, when they lost 2-1 at home to group leaders Atalanta. Ruben Amorim’s men reacted very well to this defeat and won their last two games, scoring 5 goals in the process. Sporting won 2-1 at Sturm Graz on Matchday 1, and must now win if they are to qualify for Europe.
