Sporting Braga - Sporting Lisboa 01/04/2013 20:30 GMT
The match between the teams of Sporting Braga and Sporting Lisboa will be played on 01/04/2013 at Estádio Municipal de Braga.
Sporting Braga traditionally performs very strong in the league of Portugal. Last year the team finished in third place, currently fourth in the standings and certainly demonstrates ambition and strength to protect the third position. The team is in a good run of four wins and only two points away from the third Paso Ferreira.
On the other hand, Sporting Lisbon makes its worst season in their history. For a team with such tradition and class the tenth place in the standings at the moment is very disappointing and if their you play all the remaining matches to the maximum, they could hardly hope for anything better than fifth place. There is a lack of ambition and motivation, as the team is used to pursuing far bigger goals.
Bad news for Sporting Lisbon does not end there, as the last word from the team medical staff reported problems with striker Andre Carrillo. He will miss the match due to a respiratory infection, picked up during the international match between his team - Peru and Trinidad and Tobago.
