Comments Sporting Lisbon vs Juventus: Turn the tide
Back a week ago, Sporting Lisbon had an exciting first match on Juventus' field in the first leg of the quarter-finals of the European Cup. However, luck did not smile on the Portuguese team when they had to receive a 0-1 defeat with a goal in the 73rd minute.
With the above result, Sporting Lisbon must at all costs win the second leg to be able to continue, or at least a minimum victory to bring the quarter-finals to the starting point. According to the assessment, this is not an easy task, but with the home field advantage, coach Ruben Amorim's teachers and students will confidently complete the set goals.
At the moment, Sporting Lisbon is maintaining a stable performance when unbeaten in 12 of the last 13 matches in all competitions. Obviously, the possibility of the Portuguese team "turning over" before Juventus is entirely possible.
Notably, Juventus is not a team with reliable performance when playing away from home at the moment. Accordingly, the old lady lost 2 recent away matches. More broadly, they have not won 3 of the last 4 matches in all competitions.
- Sporting Lisbon: Adan; Reis, Coates, Diomandel; Santos, Pote, Ugarte, Bellerin; Edwards, Trincao; Chermiti.
- Juventus: Perin; Gatti, Bremer, Danilo; Cuadrado, Fagioli, Paredes, Rabiot, Kostic; Di Maria, Vlahovic.
