Sporting Lisbon will be hoping to maintain their fine 2-0 lead achieved from the first leg when they trip down to Basel for part two of the round of 32 knockout tie against Basel this weekend.

You can catch up all the action here, with our coverage starting from 19:45 GMT this coming Thursday.

Simon Vukcevic scored in each half to give Sporting the upper hand after the first leg of their UEFA Cup Round of 32 tie with FC Basel last Wednesday. Sporting were on top for most of the match and a 2-0 lead is fair assessment of their fine performance against Basel in Portugal. Sporting will be hoping to go one better than their 2005 UEFA Cup final performance where they inexplicably lost the final 3-1 to CSKA Moskow in front of their home fans. Sporting are out of the title race in Portugal and will be hoping to utilize their resources in the best possible fashion away in Basel this midweek.

Basel will be hoping for a much better performance than the abysmal performance they put up in their last clash against Sporting. However, they will be encouraged by the absence of Simon Vukcevic for this clash. The Montenegro midfielder was the tormentor in chief for the Sporting side and Basel will be happy to see him out of the Sporting line up due to suspension for this clash. Basel are in the midst of an incredible home record in Europe that has seen them unbeaten for the last thirteen games. In addition, they have won eleven of their games including the last three by a goalless margin and will be hoping that they can utilize their home form to good effect against Sporting this coming midweek.
