Estoril - Sporting Braga predictions

The hosts will have little to hope for in this match. The betting odds work against them and so does the overall impression. They are a weaker side here and it would be a proper upset if they manage to beat Sporting Braga.

Though Sporting Braga are the stronger team between the two, we wouldn’t call an away bet at the odds of 2.01 a safe one. It’s shaping up to be quite an exciting match.

Estoril are coming off from a harsh home defeat (3:0). Considering the difficult match-up against Famalicão and the home-field disadvantage, the result was entirely predictable, even after the draw at half-time.

The previous Primeira Liga encounter could not have gotten much better for Sporting Braga who were heavily favoured to claim a victory anyway. They fully delivered as well, having taken an early lead and turned it into a 4:1 triumph.

Sporting Braga don’t seem to have any issues in the goal-scoring department. Their most recent records show they’ve score more than 5 goals over the last 3 matches, so they’re on a bit of a positive trend already.

Champions League finish remains Sporting Braga’s main goal despite their current Europa League standings. Therefore, they travel to Estadio Antonio Coimbra da Mota determined to earn three points. What’s more, they are heavily priced to do so as online bookies have them at 2.01 betting odds to win.

Despite being favourites, Sporting Braga couldn’t manage to secure a victory the last time they played against Estoril. This gives the hosts some precedent when it comes to beating the odds, but it’s not a strong case.

Thanks to a lack of suspensions or injuries, both teams will have their full rosters ready for an exciting game.

Over 2.5 Goals is easily the safest bet when it comes to this matchup. The best part is that it also maintains a decent betting value, especially if you use the 1.99 odds offered at Pncl.
