Sporting had a wonderful last season in the domestic championship, however, they stopped only in second position. In defense at home, the team showed phenomenal results, as they conceded only eight goals in 17 confrontations, which helped them to win 14 matches. Lisbon started the current championship not in the best way, beating only Rio Ave (3:0) in the starting four rounds. In fairness, only dry victories went on, including in the group stage of the Champions League over the German Eintracht (3:0), despite an almost equal game. The wards of Ruben Amorim recently destroyed the unyielding Portimonense (4:0) and the injured Braganza and Saint Just could not take part in that game.
Tottenham at the finish line of the previous championship snatched the fourth line in the Premier League and, accordingly, made it to the Champions League. At the home stadium, the Londoners acted more confidently and won four more matches than away. They clearly want to improve this season and have been strengthened by Richarlison and centre-back Romero in the off-season. The Spurs are currently unbeaten in the league and are in second place, being one point behind the leader. They lost points only in confrontations with West Ham (1:1) and Chelsea (2:2). It’s good that last week there were no problems with Fulham (2:1). In fact, all the leaders are in the ranks, except that Lucas Moura’s participation in the fight is in question. Nevertheless, his absence did not prevent him from beating the French “Marseille” (2:0), using the numerical advantage. More 888 soccer prediction can be obtained from the link provided.
