Sporting Lisbon vs Chaves Prediction

Sporting Lisbon wrapped up an impressive campaign by winning a 20th league crown two weeks ago. The Lions were the most dominant side in the league and manager Ruben Amorim has boosted his stock further with his work in the dugout. Whether the 39-year-old stays in the Portuguese capital remains to be seen as he has been linked with several top clubs on the continent.

Chaves, for their part, will ply their trade in the second tier next season, having won just one of their last 11 league games (seven losses).

There is not much at stake in this game but the hosts will be looking to sign out on an impressive note. We are backing Sporting to claim a comfortable win and clean sheet.

Prediction: Sporting Lisbon 4-0 Chaves
