Nacional Madeira vs Sporting Lisbon Prediction & Betting Tips - Liga Portugal
by Kennedy Kechula in Liga Portugal Predictions
Match week two in the Portuguese Primeira Liga is here, and newly promoted Nacional will play host to champions Sporting Lisbon. Both sides remain unbeaten after contrasting results on the opening weekend. Read on for our preview and prediction of the match.
After three years out, Nacional returned to the topflight with a 1-1 draw at AVS. They will seek to build on that for a rare win against the league champions. Nacional are targeting a first win against Sporting in over a decade, having last won this fixture in 2011.
When these two sides faced off in 2021, Nacional lost 2-0. It was the 20th straight game against Sporting without a win. In their last nine home matches, Nacional are unbeaten, with seven wins. It is their scoring form in this run that will inspire them against the visitors.
Sporting started their title defence on a winning note, thumping Rio Ave 3-1 at home. With the win, they recovered from their 4-3 loss to Porto in the Super Cup.
For the second straight match Sporting conceded late as Clayton Fernandes scored Rio Ave’s consolation goal. Conceding five times in two matches is not a trend the champions will want to carry into the coming matches.
It will particularly be a concern looking at Nacional’s scoring form. Out of 17 away matches last season, Sporting managed just seven clean sheets. Their biggest quality is in attack though, and that’s why they won 12 of those 17 league matches on the road.
They failed to win only five of their 34 matches last season but defensively, Sporting were third best.

2 Goals Ahead Early Payout Offer
One of the worst feelings when placing a football bet is when the team that you have backed has gone into a multiple-goal lead only to be clawed back to a draw or to lose the game in question. This is something that bet365 has rectified for their bettors courtesy of this offer. If the team that you backed takes a two-goal lead your bet will be paid out as a winner. That is any two-goal lead so 2-0, 3-1, 4-2 etc will all be paid out early as a winner if your team is in that position. This is available in 80 different competitions including the major leagues across Europe and can be played on the full-time result market. Singles and multiples are both valid for this offer but you cannot bet on enhanced price markets. As with most promotions, if you cash out a bet in full, the bet will no longer be available for the offer in question. It also cannot be used if you bet on the draw on a game.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
