We have left another week behind in the league. Sporting and Porto continued winning but Benfica lost two points this time. Sporting are the leader and four points away from their closest competitors Porto and Benfica. If I am not wrong, Sporting haven't been the champion in the league for 20 years. They have a big chance to make this happen this year.

It has been between Benfica and Porto for centuries. By far the best teams in Portugal and that is clearly reflected in the statistics of recent years. I don't know exactly who is better of the 2. Think 50-50

Porto really demolished Moreirense 3-0 the other night. They were the favorite team and they did what was expected from them. S. Oliveira scored the first goal from the penalty. T. Martinez and Evanilson scored the other goals. After Benfica drew with Santa Clara, Porto went up to the 2nd place.

Just favorite FC Porto on Primeira Liga (Portuguese League) because they have been strong although left four points from Sporting Lisbon and two points from Benfica,  I think still have many match for Porto FC back to glory and keep existing their trophy what have got last season. Many potential player on Porto FC and now still focus how to get good player become competitive with sporting and benfica.
If FC Porto wants to win the title, they must play well against Sporting and Benfica and win. Because this time Sporting, Benfica, and Porto are in the forefront for the title fight. Sporting has not lost a single match yet. If they can continue this trend, they will win the title this season.
i believe Sporting are the closest to win the championship this year, as you said, they haven't lost yet, which is something Benfica and Porto couldn't do this season, and they are having some games where they struggle a lot.

Benfica drew with Santa Clara 1-1 away this evening. Benfica had too many dangerous attacks but they had only 2 shots on target. They really had much difficulty in finishing. Benfica finished the first half 1-0 ahead with the goal of Nunez. But Santa Clara weren't intending to give up of course and they managed to bring the score to 1-1 with the goal of Cardoso in the second half. After this match, Benfica went down to the 3rd place.

Sporting 2-0 SC Braga

In the first part of the game Braga had more than 3 opportunities to score goals, the defense of sporting is very well when managing to prevent Braga from scoring goals and especially the goalkeeper of sporting was the guy I should praise the most. In the second part of the game braga scored a goal, but was offside, after that sporting woke up and managed to score the first goal in a very well done pass and it was well executed, it was a case for me to think: "braga, learn from sporting how to score goals" and it didn't take long for braga to have the same opportunity as sporting there was, but the sporting goalkeeper managed to defend the shot from the brada player who practically shot towards the sporting goalkeeper... and as in soccer there is that old rule: "when you miss many goals, the opponent will score the first chance he have and you will lose the game... "yesterday that rule once again penalized braga. there were 4 players of braga against only 1 sporting player but they were unable to prevent the sporting player as they let the sporting player shoot the goal and worse was the bad defense that the goalkeeper of braga made that allowed the sporting player to score the second goal

Braga continue to waste more opportunities to score

congratulations sporting!

Sporting-Braga match was just as I expected. It was really a challenging match and Braga had more chances than Sporting. Braga scored in the 46th minute but it was cancelled by VAR. It was the turning point of the match. Sporting scored 8 minutes later and got the advantage. They scored again in the 78th minute and won the match 2-0. They are still unbeaten and I wonder about when they will lose in the league.

Today there is only one game in Portuguese league. The undefeated leader Sporting CP will play with Braga.
Sporting (9W-2D) has a great form but Braga (8W-3L) is also going really good this season. I'm expecting a though game. Both teams have good defensive lines, their conceded goal average is under 1.
I think Sporting is one step ahead and I really want them to keep this form going but I hesitate to bet on them.

Benfica are going to play an away game against Santa Clara this Sunday. Benfica are the 2nd with 27 points and Santa Clara are the 7th with 13 points. Benfica won their last 4 matches and they will play confidently here for sure. Santa Clara got only one win on their last five matches and lost the rest of them. This will be very tough for them. There were 4 matches between these teams in recent years. Benfica won 3 of them. Santa Clara won one of them 4-3 on their away game last season. Benfica have a psychological predominance too. I think Benfica will win here.

true, i don't think Sporting can keep the same performance throughout the whole season, and they're competing against Benfica and Porto which makes it really hard for them, they're like Real Sociedad in La liga, started really well but couldn't keep it for a long time.
I don't think it's correct to compare Sporting and Real Sociedad, it's one of Big 3 teams in Portugal, which usually finnish in Top 3. It's more like Atletico in La Liga. Though, in recent years Sporting squad doesn't looks very impressive, they don't have big stars. I watched their game with Belenenses and wasn't very impresesd. Belenenses  could have won, but they missed penalty.
But as I already said previously, Sporting didn't qualified to Europa league and it can be advantage for them. Their calendar is less intensive and they can focus onl eague games only.

Sporting are going to play a home game against Braga this Saturday. Sporting are the leader with 29 points and Braga are the 4th with 24 points. Sporting didn't get a loss in 11 matches and won 9 of them. They are one of the scorer teams on home games (12 goals in 5 matches). Besides, Braga are one of the best teams on away games. They got 4 wins and 2 losses in 6 away games. They also scored 14 goals and conceded 8 goals on these matches. After losing to Belenenses, they won their last two games (by scoring 7 goals and conceding only 1 goal). In my opinion, this will be a tough match. But I think Sporting won't lose this too unless they get a red card etc. .

What a match was Guimaraes-Porto last night. I was expecting a more balanced game but Porto really demolished Guimaraes on statistics. But this is football and not everything is statistics of course. Guimaraes had 2 shots on target and 2 goals. They were nearly getting one point here but Porto didn't let them by scoring the winning goal in the last minutes and they beat Guimaraes 3-2.

during matchday 11 all the leaders won their matches though victory for Porto at Vitoria Guimaraes was very difficult. Diaz managed to score for Porto at 80th minute and snatch the 3-2 victory.

Sporting is vastly superior to all the other teams. They have won every game played so far except for a draw against Famalicao. I really think they will stay on the podium until the end, and as for the first position, I really suppose they will keep that as well.
Well, it looks good but being superior at the start of the season does not guarantee that Sporting will be consistent. Apart from that, Sporting have more time in rest and it is different from the teams below like Benfica and Porto, because they have less rest time because the previous schedule was so tight because they also played in CL and EL competitions.
From 11 matches so far:
Sporting: win 9, draw 2
Benfica: win 9, lose 2
Porto: win 8, draw 1, lose 2
With the results from these 11 games so far, I still believe Sporting will not be too strong to defend their top position.

are you sure:



Belenenses 1-2 Sporting

In this game Belenenses could have won easily, unfortunately they don't have good players. But my point is that it won't be long before the porto is benfica to overcome sporting and become a champion (porto or benfica one of them will be champion). Portuguese league Is very predictable in that part

Benfica 2-1 Portimonense

benfica plays very well, but when he plays with teams like porto and other big teams they miss opportunities to score goals and end up losing. It's as if they lacked playing experience or didn’t have confidence when they play with big teams, I don’t know what their problem is that whenever they are big teams they play like barcelona, they like to keep the ball for a long time and when Is time to score goals, fail miserably

Porto and Benfica both dominated the Portuguese League in the last twenty years, it is really good to see some competition from Sporting, the last time a team other than porto and benfica won the Primeira Liga title was in 2001/2002 season, and guess who it was, yup Sporting lisbon, i hope they keep winning to make the league even more exciting.

I somehow agree with you but Portuguese league is an inconsistent winning league, a club might be doing well but will suddenly start loosing even to the least clubs, Benfica on the other hand will compete with CP as the league is just starting with 11 matches played so far. Let's see how it goes at season ending.
