Porto vs Sporting Lisbon Prediction & Betting Tips - Taca de Portugal
by Indran in Football Predictions
Porto welcomes Sporting to the Estádio do Dragão for the second leg of the Portuguese Cup semi-final. The home team take a 2-1 away win from the first leg into this match. Porto have surprisingly never won this competition but have finished as a losing finalist on four occasions. They have only lost once in their last 25 matches across all competitions with that defeat coming against Lyon in the Europa League. They are currently nine points clear at the top of the league with just four matches to go and are unbeaten at home this season in all domestic matches. Porto are fresh off an excellent 7-0 win in their last match against Portimonense and have not conceded a goal in their last four matches while scoring 12. They have not had an easy path to the semis as they beat arch rival and seven time champion Benfica 3-0 in the round of 16.
Sporting have won this competition in the last two seasons and have won four of the last five titles. Their dominance of this competition will be severely tested in this match as they have to overturn a 2-1 deficit which won’t be easy as Porto have not lost at home this season to any fellow Portuguese team. Sporting lost their last match 2-0 to Benfica which ended a six match unbeaten streak. They have only lost twice in their last ten matches with the other loss coming in the first leg tie of this fixture. Sporting seem to have little chance of defending their league title but will be desperate to deny Porto the opportunity to dethrone them of two titles.

Our Porto vs Sporting Lisbon Prediction
Porto will want to end their long wait for a Portuguese League Cup yet they have been in the finals on four occasions. Sporting won this competition for the first time in 2018 and amazingly now have four titles to their name. They will need a minor miracle to win this match as Porto have been unstoppable at home. We are backing Porto to win this match and make it through to their fifth Cup final.
