Sporting Lisbon vs Manchester City Live Stream Highlights March 2012

In the Europa League match on Thursday night we will have Sporting Lisbon taking on English League leaders that is Manchester City in the first leg of their round of 16 tie and this match will be played in Portugal. Manchester City already disposed off FC Porto from Portugal in the earlier knock out round and they had to do it at Etihad Stadium after they won the first leg 2-1 and this time around they will be hoping to do the same when they take on Sporting Lisbon

Manchester City are coming into this match on the back of a 5 consecutive wins in the league and Europa League alike and that makes them one of the most inform team around Europe, they might not play the prettiest football but they are getting results and if they can keep going towards the end of the season with this kind of form I am pretty much sure they will end up with some huge success at the end of the season as Mancini is making City more than just a money club, well atleast for now it looks that way.

Sporting on the other hand are in mixed form at the moment, they are not playing well in the league, but they have an good chance of ending their season in the Europa League on a high, they would love to take somthing to Manchester to defend against and you can tune in here for the full match highlights and goals video.
