Porto v Sporting (Portuguese Cup): TV, likely XI, times and... | OneFootball

Sporting Sporting take to the field again this Wednesday, April 22, against Porto. The match, the second leg of the Portuguese Cup semi-finals, against the side coached by Francesco Farioli, will be played at the Estádio do Dragão at 8:45 pm.

It is worth remembering that Sporting hold the advantage in the tie. In the first-leg match, Rui Borges’ side won 1-0 at the Estádio José Alvalade, with the game’s only goal scored by Luis Suárez from the penalty spot in the 61st minute.

Rui Silva, Eduardo Quaresma, Ousmane Diomande, Gonçalo Inácio and Maxi Araújo; Morten Hjulmand and Hidemasa Morita; Geny Catamo, Daniel Bragança, Francisco Trincão and Luis Suárez. This is expected to be Sporting’s starting eleven for the match against the Dragons.

Rui Borges is not expected to make one key change compared to the derby. Eduardo Quaresma should once again take the place of Iván Fresneda, who will not play again this season. Otherwise, there are no changes in defense.

In the middle, Morten Hjulmand will play in midfield and is expected to partner Hidemasa Morita. Further forward, Geny Catamo should appear on the right, while Francisco Trincão will operate on the left side of midfield. Daniel Bragança will support the striker — with Pote starting on the bench — Luis Suárez.
