Sporting Lisbon vs Casa Pia live preview Primeira Liga

Sporting Lisbon：

Sporting Lisbon suffered a 1-0 defeat to Braga in the Taca da Liga, ending their quest for the title, but they remain formidable in the Primeira Liga with a convincing 5-2 win over Vizela in their last league match. Sitting atop the league table with 46 points from 18 games and boasting the most prolific attack, Sporting is determined to reclaim the Primeira Liga title. They approach Monday's clash against Casa Pia with confidence, having dominated in all four previous encounters and aiming for a sixth consecutive league win.

Casa Pia：

Casa Pia, struggling at home with a recent 3-1 loss to Farense, has the worst home record in the league, with five defeats in their last six home games. Currently in 12th place, just three points above the relegation playoff spot, Casa Pia has managed only five points from nine home matches. While they secured two consecutive away wins, facing Sporting Lisbon at their perfect home ground presents a formidable challenge for Pedro Moreira's team.

Analysis：

Sporting Lisbon faces some key absences as Hidemasa Morita and Ousmane Diomande are on international duty with Japan and Ivory Coast, respectively. Injuries sideline Jerry St. Juste and Ivan Fresneda. Despite this, striker Viktor Gyokeres, with 16 goals and nine assists in 22 matches, remains a potent force. Casa Pia is without midfielder Beni Mukendi at the Africa Cup of Nations, and Kiki Silva is still sidelined with an Achilles tendon injury. Goalkeeper Ricardo Batista serves the second game of a three-match suspension, with Lucas Paes expected to continue in goal for Casa Pia.
