Betting suggestion:
Regardless of what happens in the match between Vitória de Guimarães and Benfica, hours before this classic in Alvalade, the match will always be of the utmost importance for FC Porto, whether to maintain distances to the lead or shorten them. Collectively, Conceição's team will tend to be superior to Sporting, who still have the home factor - where they haven't lost to FC Porto for more than a decade - so they can do so by balancing a game that is expected more tactical than broken.

In a season marked by a start on and off the pitch, where the focus is on the change of coach at an early stage of the sportive year, Sporting has had several crashes, is far from the title fight, but seems to be healthy enough to be able to assert itself as the biggest candidate for 3rd place, even though there is a dream of being able to fight for a place of access to the Champions League. Nine points from FC Porto, this dream will only be viable if the Silas' team can win and shorten to six. Motivation should not be lacking, because the "lions" come from two great victories out of doors, first in the championship, against Santa Clara, in the island of São Miguel, by 4-0. Then, in a fantastic qualification achieved in the League Cup, a 4-2 defeat against Portimonense, playing in numerical inferiority throughout the second half of the game where Sporting were losing by 0-2.

Analysis Porto
The away team is currently in the 2nd position of the league, with 35 points won, after 11 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss. In the penultimate match, they tied in an away match against Belenenses, by (1‑1). In the last match, they won in a home match against Tondela, by (3‑0). In their last match, for the Taça da Liga, they got an away win against Chaves by (2‑4). In the last 7 away league matches Porto has a record of 4 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss, so they have won 14 points out of 21 possible.
In this competition, they haven’t lost any of the last 6 away matches. Defensive consistency has been one of their best features, as they have only conceded goals in 3 of the last 10 matches, and their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored at least one goal in each of the last 10 matches for this competition. This is a team that likes to score first. They have opened up the score in 11 of the last 14 matches for the Primeira Liga, they have reached half‑time in front in all of those 11 matches and have always held on to the lead until the end of the 90'. In the last 8 away matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 3 of their 7 goals between minutes (0'‑15').
FC Porto will go to this 15th round in the vice-leader of the leaderboard, with four points behind the champion and rival Benfica. Forbidden to fail under penalty of seeing the "eagles" widen the gap in the lead, Sérgio Conceição's team have not had a bad championship but have so far been slightly inferior to the other title contenders. In the last matchday of the NOS League, FC Porto welcomed and beat Tondela by 3-0, in a display of great superiority. After that, the Dragons confirmed the Portuguese Cup qualification, with a 1-0 win against Santa Clara, as well as qualifying for the League Cup “final four”, beating Chaves away from home by 4-2. Thus, the team of FC Porto enters the calendar year 2020 on all fronts and may, in Alvalade, take advantage of possible slip of Benfica in the trip to Guimarães.
