Sporting Lisbon vs. Estoril (Monday, 7.00pm)
Having booked their place in the round of 16 of the Europa League, Sporting Lisbon are back in action in the Primeira Liga when they take on Estoril Praia on Monday.
The Canarinhos journey to the Estadio Jose Alvalade, where they have lost each of their last five league visits since a 1-0 victory in May 2014 and will be looking to end this poor record.
We say: Sporting Lisbon 3-0 Estoril Praia
Off the back of a dominant Europa League performance, Sporting Lisbon will head into Monday with their morale high and full of confidence. The Leoes have enjoyed the better of this fixture, and given the gulf in experience and quality between the two teams, we are backing them to ease to another victory.

Guimaraes vs. Braga (Monday, 9.15pm)
Just two places separate Vitoria de Guimaraes and Braga in the Primeira Liga table going into Monday's Derby do Minho between the Europe-chasing hosts and title outsiders at Estadio D. Afonso Henriques.
Vitoria played out a goalless encounter at Casa Pia last time out, while Braga claimed a third successive league victory in the 2-0 success over Arouca before exiting the Europa Conference League on Thursday following a 7-2 aggregate defeat by Fiorentina.
We say: Vitoria de Guimaraes 0-1 Braga
Vitoria have conceded the joint-third fewest home goals in the Portuguese top flight — notably holding out to a goalless draw against Benfica and losing 1-0 to Porto — keeping six clean sheets in 11 fixtures at Estadio D. Afonso Henriques.
However, Braga are the division's top scorers away from home, and that consistency in finding the back of the net on their travels should produce a slender victory in the derby.
