Rio Ave Sporting CP betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This has everything to be a game of great intensity, between two teams that have the objective of guaranteeing the direct qualification for the group stage of the next edition of the Europa League. Rio Ave is going through a beautiful moment of form and, at home, should create many difficulties for a Sporting that lacks defensive cohesion. On the other hand, the "lions" should also be able to create problems for the Vila-Condenses, since, with Vietto looser and Sporar still to make his debut, hunger (and ability) to score goals will not be lacking in the front of the "lion's" attack.
