Sporting Lisbon Team News
In the previous round of the Portugal League, Sporting’s players drew 1:1 at home against Arouca. At the 35th minute of the game, Pedro Goncalves missed a penalty, and three minutes later the guests took the lead. Then in the 87th minute, the home team received another penalty kick, but this time the player of the same name was accurate.
They currently occupy the fourth position in the table with 58 points, even nine less than the second-placed Porto. In the round of 16 of the Europa League, they eliminated Arsenal after a better performance of penalties, after the total score was 3:3. During the cup final, they lost to Porto by 0:2. In the previous five games in all competitions, they recorded two wins and two draws, as well as one loss.
As for the injured players, coach Ruben Amorim will not be able to count on Paulinho, Daniel Braganca, Jovan Cabral, and Jeremiah St. Justa. All other players will be available and ready to welcome the return match against Juventus.
Goncalo Inacio and Hidemasa Morita should be in the starting 11, as is Ousmane Diomande who should replace Jeremiah St. Justa. Also, Marcus Edwards will probably find himself on the wing, but we must see.
Juventus Team News
In the previous round of Serie A, Juventus unexpectedly lost to Sassuolo away with a score of 1:0. Although according to all statistical parameters, they were the better rival in this duel, after conceding a goal in the 64th minute, they failed to equalize and return to the match.
They are currently in the seventh position in the table with 44 points in Serie A, five less than the fifth-placed Atalanta and the place that leads to the European competition. In the semi-finals of the cup, they played a draw at home against Inter in the first game, and the result was 1:1. During the previous phase of the competition in the Europa League, they eliminated Freiburg with a total score of 3:0. In the last nine games in all competitions, they recorded six wins, one draw, and two losses.
Paul Pogba and Federico Chiesa have recovered from their injuries and are ready to welcome the duel with Sporting, but there is little chance that they will play in the starting line-up. Also, Alex Sandro served his punishment in the league due to the red card, and he is also available to coach Massimiliano Allegri.
The only dilemma is who will be in the goal. Wojciech Szczesny did not defend in the first leg due to chest pain, while Mattia Perin was between the posts in the previous two matches. Also, Angel Di Maria will probably play again in the attack.

Expected Lineups

Juventus (3-5-2): Szczesny; Gatti, Bremer, Danilo; Cuadrado, Fagioli, Locatelli, Rabiot, Kostic; Di Maria; Vlahovic
Sporting Lisbon vs Juventus Prediction
The home team is a slight favorite in this game. However, Juventus has an advantage from the first game and they are in better shape, so we believe that Sporting will not be able to win. Therefore, our tip for this match is a draw or a win for the visitors, with less than 3.5 goals in the entire match.
