Alverca v Sporting (2025/26): Broadcast, line-up, kick-off times | OneFootball

Sporting returns to the pitch this Sunday, March 22, against Alverca. The match, part of the 27th round of Liga Portugal Betclic, will be played against the team coached by Custódio Castro at 18:00, on the opponent's ground.

At the moment, the green and whites occupy third place in the National Championship standings, with 62 points. Benfica is in second place with 65 (having played two more games), while Porto leads the competition with 69 points (one more game played).

Rui Silva, Iván Fresneda, Ousmane Diomande, Gonçalo Inácio, and Nuno Santos; Morten Hjulmand and João Simões; Geny Catamo, Francisco Trincão, Pote, and Luis Suárez. This is expected to be Sporting’s starting eleven for the match against the Ribatejan side.

Rui Borges will field the key central defensive duo, with Eduardo Quaresma likely returning to the bench to make way for Ousmane Diomande. On the flanks, with Maxi Araújo suspended, Nuno Santos should be included in the starting lineup, while Iván Fresneda remains untouchable on the right side.

In midfield, Morten Hjulmand remains among the Sporting coach’s options and is expected to pair up with Daniel Bragança, given Hidemasa Morita’s fatigue. Elsewhere, Geny Catamo should appear on the right, with Pote on the left midfield, and Francisco Trincão supporting the striker, Luis Suárez.
