Reasons For Barcelona vs Sporting predictions & Betting Tips
Barcelona are the favourites for this match with odds of 1.38 with Unibet, with Ernesto Valverde’s team looking unstoppable both domestically and in Europe at the moment.
On a 7 match winning streak and with Lionel Messi in top form, it’s hard to believe that this is the team that were supposedly in crisis at the beginning of the season.
The Blaugrana have 20 goals from their opening six league matches, and have conceded just twice. They also won their first Champions League match convincingly, beating last year’s runners up Juventus 3-0 at the Camp Nou.
Despite drawing their last two matches, Sporting have also started the season well and won a tricky opener away at Olympiacos, but Barca are on another level. We’re backing a 3-1 away win at 10.00 with bet365.
First goalscorer? It’s hard to bet against Messi in current form, with the Argentine on 12 goals for the season so far. He is 3.45 with bet365 to open the scoring in Portugal.
Messi scored in Barca’s only other visit to the Estadio Jose Alvalade back in 2008, finding the net in a 5-2 away win on the way to a famous sextuple under Pep Guardiola.
Gerard Pique also scored in that match. He and Sergio Busquets are expected to return to the line-up after being rested at the weekend. Former Barca man Jeremy Mathieu should start for Sporting.
Sporting vs Barcelona Form
Sporting Lisbon host Barcelona at the Estadio Jose Alvalade on Wednesday night. It should be an entertaining match between two attacking teams in the Portuguese capital.

Headlines in Catalonia have been dominated by Ousmane Dembele’s injury, which could keep him out for up to four months. Rafinha is also out, but otherwise Valverde has a full squad to choose from.
Sporting Team News
Sporting have a clean bill of health and no suspensions to worry about. Top scorer Bas Dost should play, the Dutchman only a sub in their win at Olympiacos.
