FC Porto head to João Rocha, hoping to delay Sporting’s title | OneFootball

Sporting may already celebrate tonight, at 9:00 p.m., live on Sporting TV, winning their third consecutive Placard Championship, since against FC Porto they do not even need a 26th win in 26 matches: a draw is enough to seal the title.

To delay the Lions’ party, FC Porto must win at Pavilhão João Rocha and then hope their rival loses against Águas Santas and Benfica afterward — something the Dragons have not managed since 2022. “Everyone believes it’s possible to win,” says Porto goalkeeper Sebastian Abrahamsson, who wants to see his team “fight like in the last game,” against Melsungen.

Like the Lions, the Dragons also have a decisive commitment in the race for the European final four as early as Tuesday, needing to beat the Germans by six goals. In Alvalade, Martim Costa clearly separates the competitions. “We’re only thinking about this game and we know how difficult it is. The classics are usually very balanced,” the winger told the club’s media, stressing that the whole squad is “super motivated. We want to win the title now and against a good team like FC Porto. It has been an extraordinary year and we want to finish with nothing but wins,” he added.
