Form, head-to-head history Bayern Munich vs Sporting Lisbon

Sporting are no longer the domestic champions they were in the past 1-2 seasons. They are currently 2nd, chasing Porto. In the Champions League, Sporting Lisbon are 8th, which puts them in contention for a place in the round of 16. The team has generally performed well relative to their potential, winning 3, drawing 1 and losing just 1. Most recently, Sporting Lisbon thrashed Club Brugge 3-0.

Despite only having 45% possession, Sporting had double the number of shots as the Belgians (19 to 8) and more than triple the expected goals (xG) (1.97 to 0.61). This was a fair reflection of their strength. However, of the truly formidable opponents, the Lisbon club have only faced the reigning Italian champions, Napoli.

The rest are clearly weaker teams. Therefore, the ability of Sporting Lisbon to cause difficulties for a great force like Bayern is still a big question. Remember, at home, the German team has not lost any points in any arena this season.
