Sporting holds a significant home advantage: they average 3.0 goals scored and concede only 0.69 per match at home, with home xG of 2.20 and 7.63 shots on target per game. Gil Vicente on the road averages 1.19 goals scored and concedes 1.13, with an away xG of 1.46 and only 4.19 shots on target per match, and fails to score in 31% of away fixtures. In the last 5 matches Sporting scored 12 goals (2.4 per game) and averaged 1.8 points per match, while Gil netted 5 goals (1.0 per game) and only 1.0 point per match. Over the season Sporting has 86 goals for and 24 against with a 75% home win rate and 56% clean sheets, whereas Gil has 47 goals, 35 conceded and only a 25% away win rate. Considering the clearly superior finishing (16% shot conversion vs 9%), higher xG and advantage in shots on target, I predict a home win.
