sports betting newsBelenen. 1.5 : Belenenses have dropped from fifth to eighth in the league after an appeal against a six-point deduction was rejected by the Portuguese Football Federation. The Lisbon side were punished for fielding 27-year-old striker Albert Meyong in a game against Naval on January 13. The Cameroon international had joined Belenenses on a six-month loan from Levante, but was ineligible to play having already represented two clubs this season, Albacete and Levante. Braga 22.4 : Manuel Machado resigned as coach of Braga following a disappointing five-and-a-half month spell at the club. Having been dismissed by Academica Coimbra at the start of the season, the 52-year-old was appointed by Braga in November to replace Jorge Costa. However, Braga have won only twice in 14 league games under Machado and are ninth in the 16-team standings with 34 points from 27 matches. Club officials would take over coaching duties until a successor was found. Sporting 8.4 : Defender Anderson Polga faces a spell on the sidelines after tearing a thigh muscle at the weekend. The 29-year-old Brazilian centre-back limped off after 72 minutes of the 2-0 home victory over Braga on Sunday. Sporting's medical staff said Polga will undergo further tests to confirm the full extent of the injury, but he will definitely miss Thursday's second leg of the UEFA Cup quarter-final against Rangers. Boavista 8.4 : Boavista players will begin a strike next week if the Portuguese club does not pay wages that are two months late. The strike would not take place immediately because under Portuguese law workers must issue a warning five days before they strike. That means Boavista would still travel to Guimaraes this weekend before missing their league match against Nacional Madeira on April 20. Estrela Amadora, another top flight club, have also said their players' pay is three months in arrears. Porto 6.4 : Porto claimed their third successive Portuguese league title in stylish fashion on Saturday after crushing Estrela Amadora 6-0 at home. With five games left, Porto have 63 points and an unassailable 18-point lead over Vitoria Guimaraes, whose 2-2 draw at Pacos Ferreira on Friday left them on 45 points. However, the club's triumph may be delayed by an inquiry into match-fixing allegations. Porto risk a six-point deduction, either in this championship or the next, if it is found to have bribed referees in two matches in the 2003/04 season. Porto 1.4 : Porto risk a six-point deduction after Portuguese football authorities presented the club with match-fixing charges. Porto said in a statement that the Portuguese League had asked for a formal response to allegations they sought to bribe referees in two matches in the 2003/04 season. Porto won one of those games and had a tie in the other on their way to clinching the championship under then-coach Jose Mourinho. However, Mourinho is not mentioned in the league charges or in the lawsuit. Porto have five days to reply to the charges. Benfica 11.3 : Benfica assistant coach Fernando Chalana will be the club's head coach until the end of the season following the departure of Jose Antonio Camacho. "Due to the shortage of time until the end of the season, we have decided to give the reins to Fernando Chalana, a man who needs no introduction," said Benfica president Luis Filipe Vieira. Chalana takes his first role as a head coach with Benfica second in the Portuguese league, 14 points behind leaders Porto. |
