Anybody Feeling Sporting Lisbon?

I hate these island games against Maritamo, but it's a good price for a very good team. Any info that I should know?

[rfr3sh]

was looking at this game too..but I don't know enough about it to place a bet

Sporting looks very appetizing. They look good on paper. There is a huge gap between Sporting and Maritimo but with 7 matches left in liga both teams have nothing left to play for. Maritimo safe from relegation zone and Sporting too far away from the 2 place (17 points) to even consider catching Sp.Braga. Most likely outcome??? In my opinion- DRAW.
Good luck.

Great point.

Sporting had won the last 6 matches until the earlier seasons draw. They are in great form and no longer have the busy Europa League fixtures to worry about. Great value in the odds here.

Sporting need to make up 9 points in 7 matches to catch Porto for that UCL qualifying spot. They definately have something to play for.

Wrong info. Only 2 place in liga qualifies for CL gualifiers. 3rd and 4th spots are Europa league.

Yeah and looking at the odds, I can now see that this is definitely a trap game. The under is heavy juice and so Vegas is hoping that people will grab that or the almost even odds of Lisbon. You've got me sold, I'm taking the draw and all that value!

Hmm. Espnsoccernet has it wrong. Nice to note. Thanks.

Man, ended up picking the draw instead of Maritimo +1/2 and am now kicking myself rather hard. Unless I get a miracle extra time Lisbon goal, I'll be out a few units. Nice read on not picking Lisbon, though!

[GatorTD]

Nice call. F u to espn. First lie to me about the cl spots then say Lisbon scored a pk not an own goal

[GatorTD]

Now espn has lisbon winning 3-2 thanks to an own goal.

I only use espn when I'm on my phone. It was more of a laugh thing. I was following the game on goal.com the whole way.
