by Daniel Ngulu in Champions League Predictions
After racing to the last 16 in 2024/25, Club Brugge are chasing another Champions League milestone. In the fifth round at the league phase, they will be traveling to Portugal for the match against Sporting Lisbon. Below is our prediction for this game, which will be staged at the Estadio Jose Alvalade in Lisbon.
These two sides clashed last season, with Club Brugge coming out tops. That was away in Belgium, and here Sporting will be defending a run of four home games undefeated against Belgian sides. They won three of those matches. While Sporting seek that extension, Club Brugge will have plans of their own.
The Belgian side has two wins in seven against Portuguese sides away in Portugal. The visitors will still be weighed down by history, having lost the remaining five outings in that order. In total, both teams are making their 12th appearances in the Champions League and we have a exciting battle ahead.

Sporting Lisbon - Club Brugge: Form Analysis
Sporting start this round placed 13th, with seven points. The Portuguese giants couldn’t get past the knockout playoffs last season and will be targeting better this term.
They finished 23rd in the league phase before falling to Borussia Dortmund in the second round 3-0 on aggregate. One of the teams responsible for their low finish in the league stage was Club Brugge who claimed a 2-1 win in this fixture in Brussels.
Seeking revenge, Sporting will feel well prepared for this game as they hold a nine-match unbeaten run. In their latest outing, Sporting thrashed Marinhense 3-0 in the Portuguese Cup.
Rui Borges rested most of his key players and will be naming a full-strength squad for this.
Club Brugge lost three times in their last five away UCL matches.
Club Brugge have faced some of the top names in Europe so far, and lost two of their four games. Their campaign started off with a 4-1 win at home against Monaco, before suffering back-to-back defeats against Atalanta and Bayern Munich.
On matchday four, they came close to beating Barcelona at home, leading three times but ending up in a 3-3 draw. The Belgians had a late goal disallowed, but showed they can clearly handle the bigwigs.
The big question now remains if Nicky Hayen’s men can do it away from home. They’ve already lost twice on the road this season.

Sporting Lisbon & Club Brugge Squad Analysis
There is no change yet in the long-term injury list at Sporting. Daniel Braganca remains sidelined with a knee injury sustained in February.
His return date remains unknown and has since been joined in the infirmary by Belgian Zeno Debast who suffered a leg injury in October.
Sporting’s attack, however, is well secure with Pedro Goncalves on 14 goal involvements across all competitions this season. The Portuguese forward combines well with his Ecuadorian counterpart Luis Suarez who has 11 goal contributions.
Tresoldi has three goal contributions in Club Brugge’s four Champions League matches.
Sporting have conceded at least a goal in seven of their last 10 matches. Club Brugge will be aware of this and hope to make the most of it.
Nicolo Tresoldi will particularly be interested, having scored twice and provided an assist in this competition. Coming here with an xG of 2.08, the German U21 international will be a favorite to add to his eight G/A for the season.
Club Brugge will, however, be weakened defensively in the absence of the injured goalkeeper Simon Mignolet and defender Bjorn Meijer.
