Sheriff to Win or Draw
Braga enjoyed more ball possession but could not make much of it. It was Sheriff who hit them twice and will be confident in adding to their tally. The Moldovans spurned the attacks of the Portuguese time and time again, which puts them in a good place to progress. The double chance on the away side’s success or a stalemate covers multiple bases with good returns and we are confident it will come true.
Under 2.5 Goals
The first game finished with a 2-0 result in favour of Sheriff and it looks unlikely the return leg will fare any better. The Moldovans can sit back and park the bus, soaking up the pressure and hitting their rivals on the counter. With Braga struggling to score at home and away, it looks likely that we will have an Under 2.5 total for this fixture.
Both Teams to Score: No
A goalless draw gets Sheriff ahead. Braga will have different ideas. They need to score three to book their place within the 90 minutes of action. A 1-1 scoreline effectively makes the Portuguese’s task impossible. Given the equations at hand, we expect a low scoring affair, one in which Sheriff has all the impetus to keep it a low scoring venture, blocking their rivals’ attempts. Hence, BTTS coming true looks unlikely at the Estádio Municipal de Braga.

Braga became the latest side to fail to unlock the Moldovan mystery and face an uphill task ahead of their home leg. They need to outscore their rivals to book their place. It will be a match of finer details as a single sting from the visiting Wasps will mean they have to score four for survival in Europa League.
Sheriff Tiraspol
Real Madrid were beaten at Santiago Bernabeu and it seems Sheriff are ready to post another upset. Estádio Municipal de Braga will be the venue for their latest heroics after completing half the job at home in the Sheriff Stadium. The Portuguese were unable to break their defences on the road and will have a tougher task on their hands as the European minnows’ task is clear.
