Sporting Lisbon is having an exceptional season, and if this form continues, another league title could be within reach. The team has won every match in the Portuguese league - 10 out of 10 so far. In the Champions League, 7 out of 9 available points have been secured. The only stumble came in an away game against PSV, marking the only official match since the season's start where victory wasn't achieved. The upcoming fixture will serve as a key test of the squad’s maturity.
Manchester City is facing a dip in form, hampered by injuries to two crucial midfielders, De Bruyne and Rodri. While De Bruyne's return is expected soon, Rodri's season is over. Last weekend, City suffered the first Premier League loss of the season, falling 2-1 away to Bournemouth and surrendering the top spot to Liverpool. Guardiola now faces the challenge of keeping his squad's form intact and staying competitive in both major competitions.
Sporting Lisbon vs Manchester City pick: SPORTING TO COVER AH 0
Given Manchester City’s current difficulties, Sporting has a real opportunity to capitalize. With excellent form, strong team chemistry, and no significant injury concerns, the Lisbon side looks ready for this test. The team has scored 15 goals in the last five home games, demonstrating a relentless attacking style, even against tough opponents. A bet on Sporting AH 1 looks promising for this clash.
