Their best player is Pedro Barbosa - he makes them tick (provided he's
not injured) and they've got plenty of other midfield options without Viana.
I think they played too cauciously last night, making many mistakes,
were very lucky Boro didn't score. But providing Boro needed to win that
game by at least 2 clear goals, it was always in the bag.
Against Newcastle, I think it might be a similar story....all possession
to Sporting, while Newcastle will create chances.
50-50 I'd say but I hope Sporting go through
Sorry....
