Prediction

  • SC Braga travelled to Guimarães to draw 0-0 with their rivals Vitória SC, a result that wasn't exactly disappointing for Carlos Carvalhal's men. Still, they lost the third place they shared with FC Porto and will try to regain it with a win on Friday.
  • Nacional ended Estoril's five-game winning streak with a 2-2 draw, but that result will have been frustrating for Tiago Margarido's men, who conceded the equaliser in the third minute of stoppage time. They've improved their game lately and will look to upset Braga here.
  • Braga have a technically superior team and are enjoying a good run of form, so they can't be expected to drop points here, especially playing in front of their supporters.
