We said: Sporting Lisbon 2-1 Famalicao

 Sporting have shown some defensive fragility in their opening two games, which is why we believe that Famalicao will trouble the scorers on Sunday. However, the Lions have also showcased the attacking talent that they possess in their two victories over Vizela and Casa Pia, and we think they will have enough firepower to claim all three points against Famalicao.
