Simon Banza to score anytime
The departure of Vitinha on transfer deadline day means that Sporting Braga have to go with Ruiz or Banza in the starting line-up. Even though Banza has not been able to complete 90 minutes of action since the Europa League match against Malmo back in November, he was back on the scoresheet in the 2-1 win over Pacos Ferreira. Banza was on the scoresheet twice in the reverse fixture back in August. This prediction would back the striker to score anytime.
