Famalicao vs Braga Prediction & Match Preview

Famalicao vs Braga
Portugal – Primeira Liga
Date: Friday, 19 June 2020
Kick-Off at 21:15 UK/ 22:15 CET
Venue: Estadio Municipal de Famalicao (Vila Nova de Famalicao)

The newbie has done exceptionally well in their first season in the Portuguese top tier. The last four matchdays have been a fairytale for the fans and players of Famalicao. The wins against toppers Porto and former champs Sporting CP has given them the label of a dark horse. But they are not perfect considering they are giving away two goals per game on average this season.

Braga has lost matches back to back against teams’ way below them in the table.  They have only played one game against this upcoming opposition. Playing against an unknown enemy will be a problem for a team losing games consistently.

Famalicao vs Braga: Head-to-head (h2h)

• The only head to head match between them ended as a draw.
• The reverse fixture saw both sides scoring two goals each.
• This will be the first competitive match at this ground.
• Famalicao is on a four-match unbeaten run in the league.

Famalicao vs Braga: Prediction

The hosts have found great results in recent weeks. They have toppled giants like Porto and Sporting at this very ground. With these wins included they are on a 4 game unbeaten run at this ground.  Braga has lost its most recent match on the road as well. So there is a high chance for the home team getting all three points in this upcoming matchup on Friday.

In the only game between them, both teams found the back of the net. Braga is more than capable of scoring against this opposition like they did in the reverse fixture. Since the home side has scored past reigning champs they will surely create chances, especially at home. So I am backing the home team to win with both teams scoring goals.
