Sporting Braga - Porto predictions

Sporting Braga may come out on top this Saturday yet, but it will be quite a struggle. They’ll be fighting a somewhat stronger team in Porto. However, it’s still a relatively balanced matchup, as signified by the 3.36 for the hosts to win.

A difficult match is ahead of Porto. They have a big fish to fry but we’ve seen them do it in the past and it’s certain they can do it again.

Sporting Braga’s confidence is likely shaken after they underperformed in last week’s match at Rio Ave. Most predictions felt optimistic about their shot at winning the game, but they couldn’t break the stalemate for half the game. Finally, their opponents pulled ahead in the second half and won the match 2:1.

The away team are here on the back of a stellar performance at Arouca which secured them an away win with a 0:2 goal difference. While it’s worth noting that they were the obvious favourites according to the pre-match betting odds, their dominance throughout the game speaks well of their current form.

Sporting Braga’s attackers have been seeing a lot of success lately, even in away matches. For instance, they scored 6 times during the course of their previous three away games.

Sporting Braga already played against Porto in an earlier round of this Primeira Liga season. Porto ended that match with a solid home win, though it wasn’t exactly a decisive victory. They’ll be trying to repeat that success, though it’s worth keeping in mind that they’re the away team this round.

We can look forward to an exciting game as both teams have their full lineups available, thanks to no suspensions or injuries.

The best choice for this fixture is quite easy to figure out – an Under 2.5 Goals bet at the odds of 1.75. It’s an almost guaranteed win that’s not too bad in the value department either.
