Sporting vs Maritimo Prediction and Betting Tips | December 13th 2022

Sporting will entertain Maritimo at the Estádio José Alvalade in a group-stage game of the Taca da Liga on Tuesday.

Sporting have won their first two games and need just one point from this game to ensure passage into the next round. They are likely to progress to the next round even if they lose, as they lead second-placed Rio Ave by nine points on goal difference. They defeated Rio Ave 2-0 last time around thanks to goals from Goncalo Inacio and an own-goal from Emmanuel Boateng.

Maritimo have been ruled out of contention to qualify for the next round, having lost their first two group-stage games. They will be playing for pride in this game and will be looking to sign off for the competition with at least a point.

Sporting vs Maritimo Prediction

Leões have conceded just two goals in their last eight home games against the visitors and certainly have the upper hand in this game. They scored six goals in their previous home games in the competition and are expected to score a few more here. They are also one of just the two teams to have kept a clean sheet in the competition thus far.

Maritimo have struggled to get going this season and have just one win to their name. They have lost both of their games in the competition thus far without scoring a goal and might struggle in this match as well. They are second from bottom in the Primeira Liga standings with just six points to their name.

With that in mind, an easy win seems to be on the cards for the hosts, and the odds of a clean sheet also look good.

Prediction: Sporting 3-0 Maritimo
