Our Porto vs SC Braga Prediction
Porto had a midweek game while Braga had no midweek activity, and fatigue may be a factor going to this game. Regardless, Porto stand out as favorites here. They have a better run and will be helped on by their run over Braga. While Porto are among the best defensive sides in the league, they have been conceding regularly lately. They have no clean sheet in the last four matches. Placed against Braga’s recent scoring form, we can expect both sides to score, and we will thus go for a 2-1 win for FC Porto.
All tips are fully researched and given in good faith, but profits cannot be guaranteed.
