Sporting CP, Recent FormSporting CP manager Rúben Amorim will be looking for a better result in this game following a disappointing 3-3 draw in his team's last league outing against Rio Ave. They achieved 56% possession in that match and had 14 strikes at goal, with 6 hitting the target, up against Rio Ave's tally of 11 efforts at goal, 3 of which were on target.
With 26 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, Amorim will be very pleased with his team's form going forward, but he will be casting a cautious eye over his defence, who have shipped 5 goals in the same period. Their goal scoring streak now stands at 30 games in a row, and they've kept a clean sheet in 4 of their last 6 matches.
They are showing impressive form at home with a run of 11 straight wins in a row and added to that are unbeaten at Estádio José Alvalade in 18 league games.
Viktor Gyökeres will be feeling confident about adding his name to the scoresheet once more at Estádio José Alvalade, having notched up 6 goals for Sporting CP in their last 6 league matches at home.
Farense, Recent FormFailing to acquire any points in their 1-0 home defeat by Moreirense will have left the Farense squad feeling a little deflated. In that game they had 45% possession and managed 5 attempts on goal, with 1 on target, compared to Moreirense who had 13 attempts and 2 on target.
They may consider themselves adept at breaking through their opponent's defences, having scored 7 goals in their last 6 outings, but they have had their own defensive frailties to worry about, having conceded 9 and seen valuable points lost. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games.
Having drawn 2 of their last 6 games they have at least put some points on the table, but they will not be overly happy with only 1 win.
Bruno Duarte will be keen to add his name to the scoresheet and build on his current scoring record of 4 goals in the last 6 league games for Farense.
Farense suffered the disappointment of a 2-3 defeat at the hands of Sporting CP the last time they met in the league.
Sporting CP have managed to keep a clean sheet against Farense in each of their previous 3 meetings at Estádio José Alvalade. Goals should be on the cards for Sporting CP in this one, given they have found the net, with at least 1 goal, against Farense in their last 9 meetings together.
Sporting CP will be looking to continue their winning streak against Farense having won in their last 5 meetings in the league.
Pedro Gonçalves has scored in each of Sporting CP's last 2 league games against Farense.
There is only really one injury concern for the Sporting CP manager Rúben Amorim ahead of this clash, with João Paulinho (Tendon) missing out, which gives Amorim a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
With only Luiz Felipe (Tendon) and Zé Luís (Thigh) the main fitness concerns ahead of this fixture, José Mota will be happy to have an otherwise healthy squad to pick from.
