Belenenses Sporting Braga betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

Despite the qualitative differences at the individual level between the players of the two teams, the strength of Belenenses' need to score should be enough for Carvalho's team to balance forces, not least because of the added motivation recently achieved in the fight for permanence, in the face of a Braga with no tangible goals to fight for. Thus, it is likely that the “blue” team will be able to defend reasonably well and may justify the sum of at least one point in their walk towards the desire for salvation.

Preview
Belenenses and Braga face at Estádio Nacional, in a match for the 32th round of the Primeira Liga. In the last league head‑to‑head, played in 19‑12‑2021, Sporting Braga got a home win by (1‑0). At this stadium, the head‑to‑head history favours the away team, since they have a record of 2 wins and 1 loss in the last 3 matches. However, the last time these teams met at this stadium, on 06‑12‑2020, in a match for the Primeira Liga, Belenenses won by (2‑1). The goals of the match were scored by A. Sousa (45' ) and M. Cardoso (33' ), for Belenenses, and by Paulinho (69' ), for Braga. Although this is a match between 18th and 4th of the league table, it’s actually a match between the 11th best in home matches and the 4th best in away matches.

Analysis Belenenses

After 5 wins, 10 draws and 16 losses, the home team is in the 18th position, havinf won 24 points so far. In the last match, they have tied in an away match against Estoril by (2‑2), after in the previous match they have won (1‑0) at home, against Vizela. This is a team that usually makes good use of the home advantage, since they have won 6 points in away matches, with 8 goals scored and 25 conceded, against 18 points won at their stadium, with 13 goals scored and 26 conceded. In the last 10 home league matches Belenenses has a record of 4 wins, 1 draw and 5 losses, so they have won 13 points out of 30 possible. In 31 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 18 times and have only turned the score around in 1.

Belenenses is very distressed in the fight for permanence and comes to the game to occupy the 18th and last place of the table, but with 25 points, one of Tondela and Moreirense (playoff zone) and two of Arouca, which already occupies a direct maintenance zone. With just one defeat in the last seven matches, the team led by coach Franclim Carvalho has made an incredible recovery in recent weeks and comes from two consecutive games to score, where they beat Vizela (1-0, at home) and drew, in the past Sunday, on the visit to Estoril, at 2-2. This was in a match with a dramatic end, where Belenenses was at a disadvantage of two goals, but reached the equalizer already on the final whistle, in a beautiful “shot” outside the penalty area by the Brazilian Sandro, who has great experience in European football.

Confirmed Lineup: Luis Philippe, Yohan Tavares, Carraça, Danny Henriques, Chima Akas, Sphephelo Sithole, Thibang Phete, Afonso Sousa, Safira, Rafael Camacho, Yves Baraye.
Coach: F. da Silva Maia Carvalho.

Analysis Braga

The away team is currently in the 4th position of the league, with 56 points won, after 17 wins, 8 draws and 6 losses. In the penultimate match, they tied in an away match against Estoril, by (0‑0). In the last match, they won in a home match against Porto, by (1‑0). This is a team that usually maintains its competitive level in home and away matches, with 26 goals scored and 13 goals conceded at home, against 22 goals scored and 15 conceded in away matches. In the last 10 away league matches Braga has a record of 5 wins, 2 draws and 3 losses, so they have won 17 points out of 30 possible. Their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 7 of the last 10 matches for this competition. In 31 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 9 times and have only turned the score around in 2.

Braga has been doing a championship where they meet the minimum expectations of qualifying for the Europa League, reaching this antepenultimate round with their situation practically defined, as they follow in 4th place in the table, with 59 points, 11 above from Gil Vicente and nine from Benfica. After the elimination in the quarter-finals of the Europa League, against Glasgow Rangers (defeat, by 3-1, after extra time, away from home), the team led by Carlos Carvalhal could not win on the return to the championship, drawing, at 0 -0, against Estoril, out. Last Monday, however, Braga returned to good results in a very surprising way, after imposing the first defeat in this championship against leaders FC Porto, at home, by 1-0, thanks to a good defensive performance and the solitary goal scored by Ricardo Horta.

Confirmed Lineup: Tiago Sá, David Carmo, Rodrigo Gomes, Paulo Oliveira, Vitor Tormena, Francisco Moura, Fabiano, André Horta, Almoatasembellah Ali Mohamed, Vítor Manuel Carvalho Oliveira, Ricardo Horta.
Coach: R. Gomes Duarte.
