Prediction

  • Being down to 10-men, SC Braga were able to came from behind a 2-goal deficit to get a 3-2 lead. However, they would eventually waste it as they conceded a late equalizer. Artur Jorge' men have underperformed in the league this season and are currently at 5th place, behind their all-time rivals Vitória SC.
  • Portimonense SC got a valuable 1-0 win over Estoril last weekend, getting back to winning ways in the league after losing to FC Porto by a narrow margin. That was Paulo Sérgio' men only defeat in the last 4 matches.
  • Playing at home, and with a far better team, SC Braga would naturally be favorites to win on Saturday, but they might have an eye on their midweek clash against Real Madrid, which could give Portimonense SC a chance to get something from this match.
