Sporting CP – Tondela : Preview & Prediction
We’re off to Lisbon for one of the last 16 ties in the Portuguese Cup between Sporting Portugal and Tondela, two teams who haven’t been in the same league for many, many years. Indeed, the team coached by Tozé Marreco are in the second division, which does not give much cause for optimism ahead of kick-off. Despite this, the Auriverdes have prepared perfectly for the match, coming off the back of a 1-0 win over Oliveirense. With a clean-sheet in the bag and their confidence restored, the D2 side know that an XXL performance is essential this Tuesday, or risk a fairly harsh elimination…
As you will have gathered from our reasoning, the Green Lions are the big favourites in this lopsided duel. In any case, nothing seems to be stopping Ruben Amorim’s men, as Victor Wembanyama’s list of consecutive wins is as long as his arm. With a 5-1 win over Estoril in their first match of 2024, the green and whites have put themselves in the best possible position to come away with a positive result and also to scare their opponents in the Portuguese capital!
