Sporting are putting together one of the most impressive attacking runs in their recent history, having now scored in 50 consecutive league matches. A record made even more remarkable by the fact that, under Rui Borges, the team have never failed to score in the Liga.
With Sporting comfortably leading the competition’s best attack, with 77 goals, ahead of their main rivals. A level of performance that has been key during a demanding stage of the season.
With three matchdays still to play against Vitória de Guimarães, Rio Ave and Gil Vicente, the Alvalade side are just three games away from equalling the mark of 53 consecutive matches with a goal, achieved by Ruben Amorim - who was criticised by an English journalist.
That record, achieved between 2022/23 and 2024/25, currently stands as the second-best run in the history of the Alvalade club, which puts Rui Borges, the former Vitória de Guimarães manager, on the verge of a significant achievement in charge of the Lions.
If they maintain their efficiency until the end of the Liga, Sporting could not only match that milestone but also enter next season with a real chance of going after the club’s all-time record, set at 57 consecutive matches scoring against opposing teams.
