Braga
Braga are in a decent position where they can think about mounting a challenge for the top three spots.

The team has to cope without the unavailability of Francisco Moura, who is out due to suspension after his red card against Pacos Ferreira. Meanwhile, Lucas Piazon, David Carmo, and Vitor Tormena are unavailable due to injuries.
Portimonense
