Match preview

Sporting head into this fixture on the back of back-to-back emphatic league wins, beating Vitória de Guimarães 5–1 and Rio Ave 4–1. Those results ended a five-game winless run in all competitions and helped them climb back into second place. Now, a win here would be enough to officially secure the silver medal position.

Overall, it has been a strong campaign for the Lisbon giants. They reached the UEFA Champions League quarter-finals, where their run ended against Arsenal, and they are also through to the Taça de Portugal final against Torreense. In the league, Sporting remain one of the most productive sides, with 86 goals scored — comfortably the highest in the division.

At home, Sporting have been particularly dominant, registering 12 wins, 2 draws, and just 2 defeats in the league, while also boasting a very tight defence with only 11 goals conceded. Their record against Gil Vicente in Lisbon is especially one-sided, with nine straight home wins in this fixture. In recent meetings there, goals have been common, with both teams scoring in each of the last six encounters and every match producing at least three goals.

Gil Vicente arrive in mixed form, with just one win in their last six games and only two victories across their previous eleven in all competitions. They currently sit mid-table in 6th place, too far from the European spots to realistically challenge Braga above them.

Away from home, their results have been inconsistent, and they are now without a win in five consecutive away matches. Their overall away record shows more draws than defeats, but their recent dip in form has raised concerns.

While Gil Vicente have occasionally been competitive in this matchup, Sporting’s consistency, firepower, and strong home dominance make them clear favourites heading into this clash.
