Europe League Knockout Stage Second Leg
Sporting Lisbon vs Atletico Madrid
Ground: Jose Alvalade Stadium, Lisbon, march 18th 2010
Sporting Lisbon started the league season badly but now standing fourth in the Portuguese Liga with 38 points from 23 matches. Meanwhile, they seems to have quite strong performance in the Europa League following 0-0 draw with Atletco Madrid at the Veicente Calderon in the first leg tie last week regardless of finishing the clash with just nine men.
Atletico Madrid do not have to travel so far for the second leg tie as Portugal is just around the corner, but for 'El Pupas' to gain the last eight of the Europe League must give more than usual performance.
Atletico Madrid alwayes looks unpredictable team furthermore with two of their first choice defenders is out, they could allow a goal. The Madrid based side must score at least one goal at Lisbon if want to go ahaed in competition.
Verdict: Sporting Lisbon vs Atletico Madrid 1-1
