Braga take on the visitors Benfica in the round 28 match of Liga Portugal. The match will be played on Friday, April 1st at Estádio Municipal de Braga (Braga).
It’s fair to say that the hosts are out of race for top-3. Braga has not achieved significant success in the Portuguese top division this season, as it occupies the fourth position in the standings. The club cannot rise higher, while it is necessary to defend in its position, as Gil Vicente are only three points behind. In the last round, the "gunsmiths" defeated Portimonense on the road - 2: 1, which ended their series of three games without a win. Things are going well in the Europa League, where the team reached the quarter-finals and will face Glasgow Rangers.

The Eagles are heavily involved in eurocups. Benfica are also not happy with current results on the domestic arena, as they are only third in the championship, lagging behind the second Sporting by as much as 6 points. In their last match, the team defeated Estoril at home with a score 2:1. Some compensation for the failure in the local championship was the Champions League success, where they have already managed to reach the quarterfinals, but it will be extremely difficult to get past Liverpool. Benfica was able to unexpectedly beat Ajax in European competition, so they will try to bet on the Champions League.
These two teams have reach history of head-to-heads which is not worth to mention. However, it’s important to say that the reverse fixture in Lisbon ended with 6-1 win of Benfica over today’s hosts. The bookies see Benfica as a favorite but it’s fair to say that no one will fight desperately for 3 points. At the same time, we can expect to see goals on both ends of the field.
Prediction for the match: Both teams to score – yes.
