Betting on Boavista Futebol Clube
Boavista had an inconsistent performance this season, making it one of its worst. As a result, this team won’t be fighting for anything in this match, as it currently stands in eleventh place on the ranking with 40 points.
Its only mission for this game is to show a good performance that allows it to finish the tournament on a high note. However, it has fallen short of this mission, achieving an intermittent performance with two wins, two losses, and a draw in the last five games. In fact, Boavista comes into this match after a 3-1 defeat against Gil Vicente.
The good news for Petit’s boys is that they will play at home, a venue where they have won their last three games. Therefore, they’ll try to take full advantage of this condition against a tough opponent like Braga.
Possible Lineup (4-1-4-1): Rafael Bracali; Pedro Malheiro, Reggie Cannon, Rodrigo Abascal, Filipe Ferreira; Sebastián Pérez; Ricardo Mangas, Gaius Makouta, Bruno Lourenço, Kenji Gorré; Róbert Boženík.
Betting on Sporting Clube de Braga
This match is crucial for Braga as it currently stands in third place with 74 points. A win here would secure its spot in the Champions League qualifying rounds. However, it must win to avoid jeopardizing its position.
For this reason, Braga will bring its A-game to this match. Throughout the season, it has shown great performance with 24 wins, two draws, and six losses. In the last five games, it has won four and only lost one, which was against the top-ranked team, Benfica, by a narrow margin.
Moreover, Braga is known for its strong offensive play, scoring 71 goals and ranking second in the league in terms of goals scored. Additionally, its defense has only conceded 29 goals, making it one of the toughest teams to break down.
Possible Lineup (4-4-2): Matheus Magalhaes; Victor Gomez, Paulo Oliveira, Sikou Niakate, Cristian Borja; Iuri Medeiros, Andre Horta, Al Musrati, Bruma; Abel Ruiz, Ricardo Horta.
JefeBet Prediction
There’s no doubt that Braga is the top contender to win this match, not only due to its outstanding performance throughout the season, but also because it urgently needs to score three points.
Nonetheless, this team will have to beat a team that comes unbeaten in three home games, so it won’t be an easy task. However, Braga has all the weapons to surpass its rival, which is why JefeBet expects an away victory.
Prediction: Braga Moneyline (BOA 0-2 BRA)
