Famalicão - Sporting Braga predictions

With a difficult matchup ahead of them, Famalicão will need to focus if they want to bring in another 3 points. They are not overwhelmingly outmatched by any means, but they are generally seen as the underdogs compared to Sporting Braga.

Even with the home-field advantage as a factor, Sporting Braga have a better chance of winning this clash than their opponents. They can’t afford to relax just yet though – the hosts may prove a tough nut to crack after all.

Famalicão lost their previous away game, although the narrow 2:1 margin means it’s nothing to be ashamed of. After all, Porto , their opponents, were given odds of 1.54 for a victory. They pulled ahead in the first half and Famalicão never managed to equalize.

The previous round of the Primeira Liga saw Sporting Braga beat Estoril 0:2 – a rather predictable outcome considering they were the hard favourites. Still, such a dominant performance throughout the game’s runtime is a good sign for away games going forward.

The home team’s tendency to see their defence crumble under the pressure of away games is worrying – they conceded more than 5 times over the previous 3 away games. The fact that they’re at Estádio Municipal 22 de Junho this Friday makes things easier for them, but not by a lot.

Sporting Braga netted 7 goals in their last three showdowns, which means this match might be a great chance to look at Over Goals markets. With some luck, a confirmed Over 4.5 seems quite plausible.

Sporting Braga are near the top of the table as we move into round 31 – number 3rd, to be exact. That’s enough to get them to the Europa League, but they can still hope to get more out of this campaign. Not that it’s an easy ambition to realize, of course – this bout on Friday will be a difficult one, after all.

An earlier match between Famalicão and 31 left both teams with 1 point to the tally, which Sporting Braga can’t be happy with. After all, they’re the favourites here, and the tied game was played on their home turf.

The visiting team’s position as favourites is beyond question, especially with their whole roster at hand. They’ve had no recent injuries heading into the match at Famalicão,

You can safely put down an Over 2.5 Goals bet on this match and feel very confident. If the teams’ records are any indication, 3 or more goals in this match are almost guaranteed.
