Champions League Prediction
Sporting de Portugal is one of the teams in the best shape in all of Europe and possibly the great revelation so far this season, both in the continental Leagues and in the Champions League.
It is no surprise that he can top the League in Portugal or that he is competitive in European competition. But it is surprising that they are 11 out of 11 in the domestic competition with +34 in goal difference and that in the Champions League, with 3 wins and 1 draw, they lead the group of pursuers of the leader, Liverpool.
Arteta’s Arsenal, in the middle of the standings with 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss, is fourth in the Premier League, nine points behind the head. It comes from breaking a negative dynamic, because before their victory this weekend they had gone three games without winning, with two narrow defeats and a draw.
