Braga vs Union Berlin – Following a 2-3 Primeira Liga victory over Rio Ave, Braga will be looking for more of the same after their previous performance.

Braga enjoyed 51% of the game’s possession and 11 of its 24 shots on goal were successful. Almoatasembellah Al Musrati (11′), Iuri Medeiros (25′), and Ricardo Horta (69′) scored goals for Braga.

Five of Rio Ave’s 17 shots on goal were successful. Rio Ave. scored goals through Emmanuel Boateng (81′) and Abdul-Aziz Yakubu (87′). In their last six games, Braga haven’t had any trouble scoring, doing so each time they’ve taken the field.

During that time, they have managed to score 20 goals while only having had 2 goals scored against them. But there’s a chance that pattern won’t hold throughout this game.

Union Berlin will enter this match having defeated Cologne in their previous match, 0-1 in Bundesliga 1. Union Berlin had 47% of the possession in that game and made 12 efforts on goal, scoring on three of them.  A total of 3 of Köln’s 8 shots on goal at the other end were on goal.

Cologne’s own goal was scored by Timo Hübers in the third minute. The Union Berlin defence has put on a string of excellent performances, with the result that they have only given up 4 goals overall in their last 6 matches. The total number of goals they have personally scored over that time is 10.

Braga vs Union Berlin – Betting Analysis

The Braga manager Artur Jorge only has one fitness issue among an otherwise strong group of players, thus almost everyone can be considered. Sikou Niakaté is out due to an unknown injury.

Manager of Union Berlin Urs Fischer is dealing with a number of scheduling conflicts. The team sheet will not include Kevin Möhwald (Knock) and Danilho Doekhi (Muscle Injury).

Looking at these two clubs, we believe that Union Berlin will be able to dismantle the Braga defence, but that won’t stop them from giving up a few goals on the other end. A close game that results in a 2-1 victory for Braga is what we expect to happen. Just let’s see how this one turns out.
