Our under-19s travel to Portugal knowing that only a win against Sporting CP will give us the best chance of progressing. The decisive clash takes place on Tuesday, November 26, with kick-off at 1pm (UK time) at CGD Stadium Aurélio Pereira.
Max Porter's side are eager to bounce back after a tough defeat to Inter Milan in our last UEFA Youth League outing. The result leaves us in 28th place, a precarious position where nothing less than a victory over Sporting will keep our qualification hopes alive. With just one group game remaining after this, a win is crucial to climbing into the top 22 and securing a coveted spot in the knockout stages.
