3.5+ goals in 75% of Sporting games: rising Viseu arrive at Alvalade on a 4-game run

Sporting's 8 games average 3.63 goals per game and 75% of them finished over 3.5; at home they scored in all 4 games (2.50 per game) but left the goal open in 3 (1.25 conceded per game). The Lions are still unbeaten (5 wins, 3 draws), but their draws came against Famalicão (14th) and Arouca (5th). Viseu have won their last 4 league games (Gil Vicente 1-0, Guimarães 2-1, Estrela 2-0, Estoril 2-1), but none of those opponents is in the top 5; the one serious test was a 0-3 loss at Porto. Rui Borges announced the absence of Debast and Zalazar (Zalazar has scored 2 of the team's 20 goals; Nuno Santos is out too), said "there might be one or two changes" and stressed that Viseu are a rising but mature side. At Sporting, Luis Suárez has scored 7 of 20 (35%); at Viseu, Clóvis has scored 4 of 11 (36%), all of them away. Viseu have scored in all 4 away games (1.75 per game).
