CSKA Moscow - Sporting

CSKA Moscow v Sporting Lisbon at Arena Khimki and that’s one of the most important aspects for me and one of the major reasons I am siding with Sporting. The 1st leg in Portugal was 2-1 which gives the impression of a close game but the reality of it was Sporting had over 67% of possession and all the main clear cut chances. CSKA missed a penalty but did little else attack wise. I think the perception of the game for the Russians will aid Sporting, as CSKA believe the away goal will give them the edge. CSKA have already struggled at “home” in UCL with a badly played 2-2 draw with an average Sparta Prague side. CSKA are 6 games into their season and have won every match so far. Sporting Lisbon have played 2 games in the league with a win and a draw. I think the fact the game is away from the true home pitch of CSKA is important. CSKA will have to attack to get the 1 goal win .
