We have a full round of fixtures to look forward to in the Portugal Primeira Liga this weekend, including the meeting between Sporting Braga and Moreirense.
The game will be played at the Estádio Municipal de Braga and the hosts begin the weekend in 4th place on 35 points while the visitors are in 16th place on 16 points.
Sporting Braga come into the match on the back of a tremendous 2-1 win at Sporting Lisbon last time out. The victory shows Sporting Braga can compete with the big clubs in Portugal and they scored two goals in the second half to overturn a one goal deficit at half-time.
The winning goal came in the 90th minute and Sporting Braga will be entering this match full of confidence.
It was an important victory for Sporting Braga, who failed to win their previous 2 Portugal Primeira Liga fixtures. They picked up a point at home in a 2-2 draw with Famalicão but suffered a disappointing defeat at the hands of Marítimo, going down 1-0 on home soil.
Trends show Sporting Braga are difficult to beat when playing at home in the league and they have lost only 1 of their 9 most recent home Primeira Liga matches. In fact, Sporting Braga are unbeaten in 22 of their last 26 home matches in the Primeira Liga and have scored 2 or more goals in 6 of their last 8 in-front of their own fans.
Moreirense make the trip to the Estádio Municipal de Braga having lost 2-0 at home against Santa Clara last weekend. It was a disappointing result against a team who were just 1 point ahead of them before kick-off.
That result means Moreirense have recorded just a single victory from their last 4 league games. The win came over Vizela away from home.
Moreirense are undefeated in their last 2 away Primeira matches, including an excellent 1-1 draw at Benfica in their most recent away trip. However, Moreirense have lost 4 of their last 6 on the road in the league and picked up just a single victory from their 11 most recent away fixtures.
Trends show Moreirense have seen under 2.5 goals in their last 3 Primeira games and in 3 of their last 4 on the road.
Team news and Sporting Braga are without the suspended duo of Bruno Rodrigues and Ali Elmusrati.
Moreirense also have a player unavailable due to suspension and Steven Vitoria will be forced to watch from the sidelines.
Sporting Braga come into this match as the favourites and should take maximum points. We expect to see under 2.5 goals to be scored in the game and for the only goals of the match to come from the home team.
