Sporting CP Team News
Sporting show to us in the last game against Marseille that this team has had a lot of defensive problems since the start of the season and it was amazing how they finish both games against Eintracht and Tottenham without conceding a goal.
Sporting take a lead against Marseille in France in the first minute but after that, they killed themselves with a number of catastrophic mistakes made by their goalkeeper Antonio Adan (who is suspended for this game).
During the weekend Sporting beat Santa Clara in Liga Portugal 2-1 away from home and their coach Ruben Amorim made only two changes in starting eleven.
Even with a defeat last week in France, Sporting is in a very good position to qualify for the knockout stage but they need good results at home against Marseille.
Sporting scored at least a goal in the last eight games but also they conceded at least a goal in the last four.
Olympique de Marseille Team News
Olympique survived. They must beat Sporting at home to stay in the hunt for the first two places and they did it with a comfortable win 4-1 last Tuesday.
Marseille has finished both games against Tottenham and Eintracht without a goal scored and they had a lot of good chances in both games. Sporting was the first team to feel Marseille’s attack.
Marseille is still in a difficult position even with a win against Sporting. They must respond to that win with another good result in Lisbon. During the weekend Marseille suffered the first defeat in Ligue 1 against Ajaccio. Igor Tudor made seven changes in starting eleven for that game and only Belergi, Mbemba, Tavares, and Sanchez keep their place in the team. Tudor knows that this game against Sporting is crucial for his team.
Marseille keep only one clean sheet in the last seven games but also failed to score in only two games.
H2H
Marseille wins their first-ever meeting last Tuesday 4-1 at Velodrome stadium.
Team News and Injuries
Sporting CF: Antonio Adan is suspended. Daniel Braganca, Pedro Porro and Neto are injured.

Sporting CP vs. Olympique de Marseille Prediction
We are expecting a game similar to the game that these two teams played last week, with a lot of goals. This game again has significant weight, especially for Marseille.
We saw in their previous game in the Champions League that Sporting and Marseille are very good attacking sides but at the same time with a lot of problems in defence.
Because of that, we will, like last week, be good for goals here.
