Team News

Braga
Estrela da Amadora
  • Roger is enjoying a delightful run of form, with 5 assists in just 250 minutes played. He will push for a start here.
  • Borja and Zalazar will likely return to Starting XI after featuring from the bench last time around.
  • Rodrigo Pinho will be out of action for a month due to a muscular problem. Ronaldo Tavares should start upfront as a result.
  • Sérgio Vieira could switch into a 3-5-2 shape in order to stop SC Braga' offensive power.

Prediction

  • Braga got back to winning ways last time around with a convincing 4-0 win over Boavista FC. They were in need of a win in order to restore their levels of confidence as they aim to reach FC Porto at 3rd place.
  • Estrela were unable to get more than a draw against GD Chaves last time around which kept them in a dangerous position at the league table. They've only won once away from home this season and are dealing with a 3-match losing run.
  • The visitors were able to trouble Braga in the reverse fixture in a 6-goal thriller. However, things should be different here as SC Braga are rediscovering their best form. An easy home win is expected for Saturday.
