Next Sunday everything will be decided. Who comes up, who goes down, and... who wins the championship!
Sporting definetly needs to win, since they're only one point ahead of FC Porto. But their last game is with Salgueiros, a team that also desperatly needs to win, to avoid relegation.
On the bottom of the table, other three teams fight to survive in 1ª Liga: V. Setúbal, Rio Ave and Farense.
What do you think will happen?

I'm a Porto fan... but I wouldn't mind if Sporting won.
Besides that this is what I think.
Last year, when Porto won their 5th title... they won it away against Gil Vicente in the 33rd round, and if you recall that's who they're opponent is this Sunday. I think History will repeat itself.
I think Sporting and Salgueiros will tie and Porto will beat Gil Vicente.
But with that I'm sure it'll be an exciting week-end.

I may be wrong but the gut feeling I have is that Sporting will choke under the pressure and FC Porto will be champs again. Although i'd rather see Sporting as champion, just for a change. As much as I love Benfica, i can't say that i hate Porto, they've been the best representatives of Portugal in Europe in the past 20 years, so they deserve some respect from all portuguese fans.
