We have just two gameweeks left in the Champions League, meaning that every single match is now vital and teams know exactly what they need to do in order to lock in a spot in the next round. PSG are third in the standings with four wins and a draw from six, but with 11 teams within three points of them, they need to keep accumulating points. As it stands Sporting are 14th and in the play-off qualifying positions, but with reigning champions PSG and Athletic Club up next, they’re in a precarious position and simply have to get points.

📈 Sporting vs PSG Form & Tactics

Sporting have been on a strong run of late and are chasing Porto hard in Liga Portugal. Domestically they’ve been free-scoring, averaging over 2.5 goals per game. That has understandably dropped during their European campaign but they’re still averaging two goals scored per game. The team has goals across the front line but it’s 26-year old Luis Suarez who is the team’s top scorer, with 19 in all competitions

The Jose Alvalade Stadium has been a great hunting ground for the team this season with 12 wins, one draw and three defeats, they’ve also won eight of their past nine in all competitions here. In the Champions League they’ve picked up all nine points available at home, scoring nine goals and conceding just two.

Normally at this point in the season PSG are running away with Ligue 1 but they’re in a battle with overachieving Lens for the title. This team don’t look as consistent as the one we saw last season, but we did see a huge post-Christmas improvement from PSG last term and it can’t be ruled out again. They still lead Ligue 1 at the time of writing, although Lens could overtake if they win their game in hand. As expected they lead the league in scoring but conceding 15 in 18 is a worry.

Strong on the road PSG have won seven of 12, with two defeats and three draws. They’ve won four of six Champions League games, including picking up seven points from nine available on their travels. They’re tied for the most goals in the Champions League, with 19, although seven came in one game against Bayer Leverkusen. The eight goals conceded is a worry and more than any other team inside the top seven in the table.

📔 Sporting vs PSG Formation & Team News

Sporting are missing a number of players with Nuno Santos, Fotis Ioannidis, Geovany Quenda, Eduardo Quaresma and Pedro Goncalves all sidelined. We saw Zeno Debast, Ricardo Mangas and Daniel Braganca all make their returns from the bench against Casa Pia on Friday and they could be in contention to start. The team are expected to continue playing in their 4-2-3-1 formation. That should mean Luis Suarez starting up front with Trincao in behind him.

PSG come into this game in fairly good health. Bit-part player Lee Kang-In is missing and they have two players in Ibrahim Mbaye and Achraf Hakimi who won’t have returned from AFCON in time to play. Hakimi is the only major miss and Warren Zaire-Emery will continue filling in for him at RB in Luis Enrique’s 4-3-3. Dembele will spearhead the front three after a sensational performance on Friday but Bradley Barcola is pushing for a return to the lineup, although Desire Doue and Khvicha Kvaratskhelia should get the nod.
