Sporting CP vs Midtjylland Prediction & Tips
Sporting CP seems to have a favorable draw with this double confrontation against the Danish club Midtjylland. However, the Portuguese team must be serious and applied in the first leg at home in order to make the task easier in the second leg at the MCH Arena. The current 4th in the Portuguese league, who are fighting with Sporting Braga for the 3rd place, which is synonymous with the qualification for the play-offs of the C1, lost a lot in the last game. Indeed, Pote’s partners (10 goals) lost at home against FC Porto (1-2), Benfica’s runner-up, and thus realized a bad accounting operation, although they had already won two good matches against Sporting Braga (5-0) and Rio Ave (0-1). After being eliminated in the group phase of the Champions League, the Portuguese club managed to beat Tottenham (2-0) at home before losing to Marseille (0-2) and to Eintracht Frankfurt (1-2). Midtjylland is currently 7th in the Danish championship and is not in the right car for a qualification for the next championship. Unable to win in the league (1 draw and 3 defeats), Midtjylland remains however on 2 wins in the Atlantic Cup against Ulsan Hyundai (1-0) and against Elfsborg (1-1, 4 tab 3). On 4 matches without success away from home (2 draws and 2 defeats), Midtjylland will have difficulty to perform in Portugal especially since Albert Capellas’ protégés were disappointing away from home during this C3 with 1 draw at Feyenoord (2-2) and 2 defeats at Sturm Graz (1-0) and Lazio Rome (2-1).
