TEAM NEWS AND RUN OF PLAY
Sporting Lisbon have started the season without a league win after three games and word from Portugal is coach Sa Pinto is finished whatever the result at the Estadio Jose Alvelade. Sporting have a top level team and are for sure capable of at least hitting the top two positions but after a stuttering start both at home and in Europe the clock is ticking for the coach. Things could have been so different if Maritimo's João Guilherme had not struck a fantastic free kick to take a 1-1 draw in Funchal, stopping Sporting getting their 1st three points. With a draw and a loss Sa Pinto seems to be muddling things with strange starting elevens and curious substitutions. Only the 5-0 over Horsens in Europa League qualifying can be deemed worthy of a Sporting performance as they have had an embarrassing 1-0 home to loss to Rio Ave and a 0-0 away at Victoria Guimaeres to go with the recent 0-0 at home to Swiss side Basel.
Gil Vicente are the team to avoid if you like goals as so far in the league they have managed three 0-0 draws. Coupled with a recent 1-1 Taca de Liga draw with Naval they are keeping things very tight. Especially seeing as two games were difficult ties, away to Maritimo can be difficult. Coupled with an opening day match with Porto a draw is an admirable result and clean sheet. So its certain they can defend but they do have ability going forward and it was a remarkable feat that the Maritimo game ended goalless as both teams attacked each other for most of the game.
1X2 BETTING PREDICTION
1.50 for Sporting Lisbon (Pinnacle) is a price which may seem short given the form of both teams but its likely we will see the opening win for the home side. Marat Izmailov is showing signs of being back to full fitness and he is a key player for Sporting. Sa Pinto will feel a win is the only possibilty if he wants to remain as the coach so will have his team fired up. The game is incredibly tight however and its likely 1 goal will be enough to take the points.

ASIAN HANDICAP PREDICTION
Gil Vicente +1.50 handicap at 1.53 (Pinnacle) is the selection. Both sides are very close here with Sporting very likely to take the points but by the odd goal. Both sides have only scored once in 6 games which is a remarkable statistic. It will be very difficult for Sporting to cover the handicap and the away side are fancied with a goal and half start.

TOTAL GOALS PREDICTION
Under goals 1.76 (Pinnacle) looks a certain bet here. The price is amazing and is obviously taken from the short match prices but looking at the game and statistics is hard to see where goals are coming from. Just three goals in 6 games for both sides sees the average goals per game at 0.50 and for a line just slightly favouring under 2.5 this is extreme value.
