Preview

Sporting CP currently sit in third spot in the Primeira Liga, and are coming into this game having lost their last Champions League tie against Borussia Dortmund. With die Schwarzgelben and Real Madrid in their group, the Portuguese outfit were bound to face a tough test to qualify out of their tough quartet. The team, however, did improve somewhat during the second half. In any case, coach Jorge Jesus has returned following a ban and his presence surely will help boost Sporting CP's confidence ahead of this match.

As for opponents Tondela, they are sitting in 17th place with a dismal five points and are looking like definite candidates to be involved in a relegation battle this season.

Preview

Benfica are still the only side yet to lose a Primeira Liga game this season. In fact, the Eagles' sole defeat thus far was a 4-2 result against Napoli, during which they did give the Partenopei some trouble as they attempted to stage a comeback. They come into this match having earned a comprehensive 2-0 win over Ukrainian outfit Dynamo Kiev, and following Napoli's loss to Besiktas, Benfica are still in contention to qualify from their quartet.

Rui Vitoria's side currently enjoy a three point lead over rivals Sporting CP and Porto. However, should both sides win their games, they will be temporarily tied on points before Benfica's match this Sunday. As for their upcoming opponents, Belenenses have been fair, but not spectacular. They currently sit in 11th spot, but only four points ahead of relegation candidates Tondela and Arouca.
