Nacional Preview – Can Nacional cause upset?

Following three defeats on the trot in the Portuguese top flight against Portimonense, Santa Clara and Porto, Nacional would have breathed a huge sigh of relief after recording a 2-0 home win against Tondela which gives the hosts a welcome boost ahead of the visit from Sporting on Thursday evening.

Overall results this season have been up and down for Nacional though who perhaps unsurprisingly find themselves in a mid-table position of 9th place in the Primeira Liga, but although they’ve struggled on the road this term, they’ve been quite solid at home.

A home record of 2-3-1 9/8 includes wins against Gil Vicente and Tondela but overall on home soil, Nacional have managed to pick up just two wins out of their last 10 matches and they’ve lost seven of the previous eight encounters against Sporting CP.

Sporting Preview – Can Sporting win four on trot?

Sporting sit top of the Primeira Liga with a four-point cushion over 2nd placed Porto prior to this midweek clash away at Nacional whom they’ve held the upper hand over in previous exchanges and having won their last three matches on the trot, the visitors will be in confident mood here.

Recent wins against Farense, Belenenses and Sporting Braga have further cemented Sporting’s place at the summit of the Portuguese top flight and enhanced their credentials as serious challengers for this season’s Primeira Liga title.

10 wins out of their 12 matches to date underline Sporting’s impressive start to this new campaign and they’ve also impressed on their travels too as the visitors possess an away record of 5-1-0 14/4 which includes wins at Pacos Ferreira, Portimonense, Santa Clara, Vitoria Guimaraes and Belenenses and three clean sheets.
