Sporting CP vs Marítimo: match facts, form and head-to-head – 6 December 2026, Primeira Liga

Sporting CP host Marítimo in what promises to be a decisive clash in the top half of the table, with the hosts sitting third on 14 points after four wins and two draws, boasting a 15‑6 goal difference. Marítimo, languishing in tenth place with seven points from two victories, one draw and two defeats, will need to improve on their modest 6‑8 goal tally to threaten the Lisbon side. The gap of seven points means Sporting can afford a slip while still staying in the European spots, whereas a win would propel Marítimo back toward the safety zone. Their head‑to‑head record this season has favoured Sporting, and the home advantage should further tilt the balance in their favour.
