What to expect from the Estadio Jose Alvalade crowd?

As one of the biggest clubs in Europe, they have a massive following both at home and abroad. They are a passionate bunch and they always make their voices heard when a decision is made by the referee or a goal is scored.

If you go to a derby match with one of the other teams in Lisbon or another big team in the league, you will see just how passionate they truly are. Some of the best nights come on the biggest stage when they are playing a European fixture against a big club, such as Manchester United.

The stadium is home to one of the ‘big three’ of Portuguese football, Sporting Club. The club is constantly pushing for the title and to do well in Europe. As a result of this, the 50,000 seater stadium always has a lot of passionate and supportive fans in attendance.
