Klagenfurt hosts Sturm Graz and Sporting Lisbon on Tuesday night, October 22 at 21.00 CEST, for their Champions League match. Sturm Graz lost two games in Europe, whereas Sporting won four in two.
Sturm Graz leads the Austrian Bundesliga after defeating Red Bull Salzburg 5-0. Losses against Stade Brestois and Club Brugge have hurt their Champions League campaign. Jon Gorenc-Stankovic and Gregory Wuthrich may miss playing time against a strong Sporting team.
However, Sporting Lisbon has won all eight league matches this season, a testament to their resilience and determination. Their 2-0 victory against Lille and tie with PSV in Europe further demonstrate their strength. They have a good offensive team headed by Viktor Gyökeres despite defensive ailments.
Given the clubs’ form and skill, the best option for this match is a total over 2.5 goals. Both sides have formidable offensive potential, promising a high-scoring, action-packed game that fans will be eager to see.
