Jogo do título
©TM/IMAGO
Este é o jogo que pode definir uma temporada: o duelo entre Benfica e Sporting deste sábado tem um carácter absolutamente decisivo nas contas do título da Liga Portuguesa. Frente a frente, no dérbi de Lisboa, estarão os dois primeiros classificados do campeonato, numa altura em que leões e águias ocupam a liderança partilhada da tabela classificativa, com os mesmos 78 pontos conquistados. O emblema de Alvalade parte, ainda assim, com uma ligeira vantagem, uma vez que tem uma melhor diferença entre golos marcados e sofridos (85-26 contra 82-26) do que o grande rival.
Nas horas que antecedem este autêntico choque de titãs, o Transfermarkt decidiu analisar as duas equipas tendo em consideração uma das bandeiras que melhor define o nosso trabalho: os valores de mercado. Nesse sentido, importa começar por referir que é o Sporting que tem, ao dia de hoje, o plantel mais valioso: a equipa leonina está avaliada em 487,5 milhões de euros, ao passo que as águias totalizam uma cotação de 362,5 milhões de euros.
Se olharmos para os 15 jogadores mais valiosos resultantes da combinação entre os plantéis de Sporting e Benfica, verificamos que também neste indicador os verde e brancos levam vantagem: nesta lista, que pode ser consultada na galeria disponibilizada acima, encontram-se nove jogadores dos leões e apenas seis das águias, sendo que as primeiras cinco posições estão todas pintadas de verde e branco.
Verificou-se, no entanto, um maior equilíbrio quando elaborámos um onze combinado com os atletas mais valiosos das duas equipas, que conta com seis representantes leoninos e cinco encarnados e que se encontra ilustrado na imagem disposta abaixo.
Outro aspeto que salta à vista é o facto de o futebolista com maior valor de mercado do Sporting ter uma avaliação bastante superior à dos atletas melhores cotados do lado do Benfica: Viktor Gyökeres, que é também o jogador mais valioso da Primeira Liga, está avaliado em 75 milhões de euros, ao passo que António Silva e Tomás Araújo têm, cada um, valores de mercado de 32 milhões de euros.

As contas do título
O ambiente que antecede o dérbi da Luz é de enorme entusiasmo, e é fácil perceber porquê: em jogo estará a conquista do campeonato e o novo campeão poderá mesmo ser proclamado já no sábado. Para que isso aconteça, contudo, é necessário que se materialize uma destas duas condições: ou o Sporting vence o encontro e faz a festa na casa do rival, ou o Benfica ganha a partida com uma diferença de dois ou mais golos e festeja junto dos seus adeptos. Qualquer outro cenário, nomeadamente um empate ou um triunfo encarnado por apenas um golo de diferença, empurrará a decisão para a última jornada da Liga Portuguesa, que se disputará no próximo fim de semana, com os leões a receberem o Vitória SC e as águias a visitarem o SC Braga.
Há jogos que transcendem o próprio futebol, que dispensam apresentações e que são capazes de puxar ao máximo pelas emoções de cada um, e o Benfica-Sporting deste sábado é um deles. Um duelo carregado de história, paixão e uma responsabilidade extra: a do título. Que venha daí o dérbi!
