Farense Preview – Can Farense cause upset?
Despite holding supposed home advantage at their Estádio de São Lúis on Friday night against league leaders, Sporting CP, Farense face a tough night at the office having managed to win just one of their last eight matches overall in the Primeira Liga.
That rare win came in the form of a 1-0 win away at Boavista but four defeats out of their last five matches to Rio Ave, Belenenses, Sporting Braga and Maritimo have ensured that the hosts still remain in the bottom two of the division.
Farense are also without a win from their last six matches at home within a poor record of 3-4-6 15/16, losing four of these six games and they’ve also lost their last three meetings on the trot against Sporting CP as well.
Sporting CP Preview – Can Sporting extend lead at top?
Sporting CP will be eyeing off another three points here in Friday night’s clash away at lowly Farense as the visitors look to extend their lead at the top of the Primeira Liga to nine points ahead of 2nd placed Porto prior to the weekend’s fixtures.
It’s been a stellar season to date for Sporting CP who still remain unbeaten in the Portuguese top flight this term, winning 20 of their 26 matches so far in this campaign and with an impressive away record of 10-3-0 24/6 under their belts, look set to add to their points tally here.
Along with keeping eight clean sheets on the road this term, Sporting have also scored 2 goals or more in 10 of their 13 away matches to date which could spell further trouble for Farense.
