Borussia Dortmund vs Sporting CP Preview and Livestream

Dortmund have had a mixed UCL campaign. With some of the world’s best young players, their exciting football has at times been overshadowed by naivety off the ball and a lack of experience when defending. But despite that, they are very much in the running for qualification from Group C.

With Ajax winning all their 4 games until now, it is clear that they are through. But Sporting and Dortmund are locked at 6 points. Besiktas are out of the running with 0 points so far, but a win for the German side in this gameweek means qualification as they also have a better head-to-head record against Sporting CP after beating them 1-0 at Signal Iduna Park in September.

Borussia Dortmund vs Sporting CP Prediction

Borussia Dortmund are a strong team under Marco Rose but their injury issues are poling up. So much so that they may have to play players that are really not adept with senior football as of now. However, we believe they have enough in the tank to beat a struggling Sporting CP by a 2-0 margin in Portugal.
