Action in Group D in the Europa League resumes on Thursday, as Sporting Lisbon will look to continue their bright start to the competition. Raków will be the hosts this week, as they continue to look for their first win in the tournament this season.
Sporting Lisbon have been one of the brightest starters in the Europa League this season, as they currently sit second in the Group D standings after two rounds of matches. However, they will be looking to bounce back to winning ways this week after falling to defeat on matchday two in the competition.
Raków will also be looking for a positive response this week, as they currently sit bottom of the Group D standings after losing each of their opening two matches in the competition. They are yet to score a goal in their two previous fixtures, and they have already conceded three times.
Sporting were excellent in their opening away match in the Europa League this season, as they landed a 2-1 victory in Austria against Sturm Graz. That success means that they will be looking to win back-to-back away matches in a major European competition for the first time since 2010 on Thursday. Victor Gyokeres could be a player to watch, as he has scored two in two for Sporting so far this season in the competition.
Raków have suffered back-to-back defeats in the Europa League this season. They are also one of four teams that are yet to find the back of the net in the competition, and they have also registered the fewest shots in the Europa League, and have the highest xG against in the tournament.
This will be the first time that Raków will come up against a Portuguese rival in the Europa League. Sporting have won two of their previous four showdowns against Polish sides in UEFA tournaments, but they have failed to win each of their last two away from home.
Raków have been outclassed in the Europa League to this point, and we once again expect them to struggle when they come up against Sporting Lisbon on Thursday. Therefore, we will be siding with the away side landing maximum points to edge nearer to the top of the Group D standings.
