Sporting - Juventus



This Halloween fixture sees two giants of the European game come head to head. The only spooky thing about this fixture is Sporting Lisbon’s current form in the competition, having lost their last 2 (including 2-1 vs Juve) and they are now desperate for a win to stay in contention.

Sporting are hoping to make amends after the reverse fixture, a hard fought 2-1 loss in Turin 2 weeks ago. Home advantage may be key for the Portuguese outfit in this massive fixture.

Juventus will be favourites for the tie, but Sporting will fancy their chances as domestically they remain unbeaten (8W, 2D) in their first 10 games. Juventus are not exactly pushovers themselves in Italy, coming into this off the back of a convincing 2-0 victory away to AC Milan.

Sporting have gone 4 consecutive matches without a draw. 1/2 - 1.32

Juventus have gone 6 consecutive matches without a draw. 1/2 - 1.32
