Kick-off on 29.01.25 22:00.

In the eighth round of the UEFA Champions League group stage, Sporting will face Bologna at the Estádio José Alvalade. The teams have met twice in Lisbon in the UEFA Cup. In the 1990/91 quarterfinals, the hosts won 2-0, while in the 1/32 stage of the 1998/99 season, Bologna took revenge with an identical score. Sporting has previously hosted Italian clubs in the Champions League, such as Internazionale (0-0, 2002/03; 1-0, 2006/07), Udinese (0-1, 2005/06), Roma (2-2, 2006/07), Fiorentina (2-2, 2009/10), and Juventus (1-1, 2017/18). Bologna, in their international history, had not faced Portuguese teams before this season.

The MEGOGO platform will broadcast the Sporting vs. Bologna match live online on January 29, 2025.

The hosts have won at home against Lille (2-0) and thrashed Manchester City (4-1), but suffered a heavy defeat to Arsenal (1-5). In their last ten Champions League matches at the José Alvalade, Sporting has won five times and lost five times. In the last six home matches in Lisbon against Italian teams in UEFA competitions, the Lions have only won against Lazio in the 2011/12 Europa League group stage, with a 2-1 scoreline.

Bologna has scored the fewest goals in the group stage, and along with Girona, they are still goalless away from home. The Rossoblu lost to Liverpool and Aston Villa in England, both 0-2, and managed a goalless draw against Benfica in Lisbon. Bologna has not won an away international match since 2002, when they defeated Teplice 3-1 in the semifinals of the Intertoto Cup. In all four of their Champions League away matches, the Italian club has not scored a goal.
