Gil Vicente - Sporting CP predictions

To call the upcoming match difficult for Gil Vicente would be a major understatement. They are going up against impossible odds. With a home win priced at 10.68 with major online bookmakers, this is a completely one-sided game.

Any Result bet in this match other than Away Win would be quite optimistic indeed. Sporting CP seem to be on their way to a relatively easy victory, though we suppose a major slip-up is not out of the question. Don’t count on it, though.

When it comes to Gil Vicente’s previous Primeira Liga clash, things went the wrong way from the off. They were never the favourites to claim an away win (3.25) but it’s fair to say their fans did not expect to see them lose Rio Ave. They fell behind in the first half and the game was already settled.

Sporting CP are here on the back of a 2:1 victory against Benfica achieved thanks to a late-game decider. Despite playing at home, the odds of them winning were set at 3.67 with top online bookmakers, so the 3 points are more than welcome.

Looking over the home team’s recent record, we can see a worrying trend. They’ve conceded more than 5 goals over the past 3 matches alone, indicating problems in their defensive lineup.

With 10 goals in their previous 3 Primeira Liga matches, Sporting CP boast some of the most prolific strikers of the league. Top online bookies are predicting another action-packed game.

The visitors will have to maintain a high level of composure if they are to remain top of the table. No slips allowed at this stage of the Primeira Liga season. Sporting CP have made a compelling case for themselves ahead of the Friday clash, however, and are being priced at 1.28 to win.

As far as the head-to-head stats are concerned, Sporting CP already confirmed their status as favourites. They defeated the away team previously in the season, leaving little doubt as to which squad is in better form.

We can look forward to an exciting game as both teams have their full lineups available, thanks to no suspensions or injuries.

If you want to get some value out of this match, you’ll need to be willing to take a risk. The best betting offers are found in the HT/FT market, specifically for a Draw/Away bet.
