Estoril vs Braga – Best Betting Tips, Odds, & Predictions

Estoril hit a new low after losing three consecutive league matches following the 2-0 defeat at the hands of Santa Clara. Since winning against Portimonense more than a month ago, it has been downhill for Estoril. Sporting Braga were knocked out of the Europa league after a 3-1 extra time defeat at the hands of Rangers. David Carmo had provided the lifeline for nine men of Braga following the red cards to Vítor Tormena and Iuri Medeiros. During the weekend, Braga had been Vizela with a 1-0 score thanks to Iuri Medeiros’ goal.

Braga win

Sporting Braga are looking for a fifth consecutive victory against Estoril. After four consecutive successes in which the team has conceded just one goal, a victory in this game would be the right response for the Europa League exit in narrow circumstances. Estoril have not been providing much response to the recent defeats and they are likely to end up suffering more in the hands of Braga.

Total goals over 2.5

Braga have managed to get 17 goals in the last four meetings with Estoril, who have been pretty average defensively. The midweek exertions in the Europa League are likely to have an effect but Braga’s forwards have form and there will be a lot of goals in this game.

Both teams to score – yes

Although Estoril have not been winning matches, they have been averaging around a goal per game without the difficulty. Braga will also have some tired legs after the midweek game. This will be a match where both teams score.

Estoril vs Braga: Match Preview and Team News

Estoril

Estoril will be finishing mid-table irrespective of the performances that they put in over the remainder of the campaign. Such a position is likely to invite some complacency in the team and it has been visible over the last few games. Manager Bruno Pinheiro will come into the game without Lucas Africo and Rui Fonte.

Braga

Sporting Braga manager Carlos Carvalhal’s hopes of reaching the final stages of the Europa League were put to an end in very harsh circumstances.
