Team News

Boavista
Braga
  • Filipe Ferreira will likely start at right-back since Pedro Malheiro will serve a match ban here.
  • Chidozie is fully fit but he might not make his return to the starting XI just yet.
  • Bruma came from the bench to deliver a couple of assists last time out and will push for a start here.
  • Ricardo Horta remains a doubt for Sunday, but would be a huge boost for the visitors if he recovers.

Prediction

  • Despite their numerical advantage, Boavista FC ended up losing to GD Chaves last time out. They're dangerously close to the relegation zone and will need to improve at the back in order to escape the bottom three.
  • SC Braga will not be in the best mood for this match as they were eliminated from the Europa League by Qarabag in midweek after another lacklustre domestic win against SC Farense.
  • The visitors have a better team, but given their run of form and their recent 120 minutes of gametime in midweek it wouldn't be a surprise if they slip up at the Estádio do Bessa.
