Braga to record vital first-leg victory over Rangers
4925

On Thursday night, Sporting Braga hosts Rangers at the Estadio Municipal de Braga in the Europa League quarter-final first leg.

Sporting Braga goes into this game on the back of a 3-2 home win over Benfica. The victory was their second straight win in the Portuguese Primeira Liga and their third straight game unbeaten in all competitions.

The Portuguese team have proven hard to beat of late, as they have suffered just one defeat in their last nine outings in all competitions.

However, when it comes to the Europa League, Braga has a mixed recent record, as they have won just two of their last five matches in the competition. Carlos Carvalhal’s team recorded a 3-1 aggregate victory over Monaco to book their place in the last eight of the Europa League.

Braga are unbeaten in their last five home games in the Europa League, having recorded three wins in 90 minutes and one in extra-time, as well a draw.

Rangers suffered a damaging 2-1 home defeat against city and title rivals Celtic last time out. The defeat leaves Giovanni van Bronckhorst’s team six points behind their bitter rivals in the race for the SPL title.

Like their opponents, Rangers have been difficult to beat in the Europa League of late, losing just once in their last matches. A 2-1 defeat against Red Star Belgrade last time out ended a seven-game unbeaten run for the visitors in the competition.

The game continued a high-scoring trend for Rangers in the Europa League, as their last four European games have all produced over 2.5 goals.

Rangers have struggled for away wins in this competition, having won just one of their last seven games in the Europa League on their travels.

Forebet predicts that Sporting Braga will record a victory in a high-scoring encounter to take an advantage into next week’s second leg.
