Braga vs Moreirense Prediction: Liga Portuguese Match

There is an interesting showdown between two sides competing for a European spot in Liga Portugal this weekend, as Braga look to claim a second win in three matches. However, Moreirense will be chasing a win to move within two points of the top four.



 

Liga Portugal Preview 

While the top three have drawn clear of the chasing pack, there appears to be an interesting battle taking shape for the fourth and final European spot in Liga Portugal this season. Braga currently holds the advantage at this stage by occupying that position, but they are just a point clear of fifth-place Vitoria. 

The pressure will be mounting on the home side this weekend after winning just once in their last four matches in Liga Portugal. Braga have also suffered four defeats already this term, and have looked vulnerable defensively after allowing 27 goals. They were last in action in midweek after securing a point at home against Chaves. Their goal in that tie was netted by Rodrigo Zalazar, but it’s likely that they would have been disappointed not to have claimed maximum points given their dominance.

Moreirense are one of the sides looking to chase down Braga in the battle for a European position this term. They come into this round sitting sixth in the standings after winning nine of their opening 19 matches this season. However, they are among the lowest scorers in the competition after netting just 25 goals this term. 

A return to form will be required this weekend, as Moreirense have recorded just two wins in their last five matches in the Portuguese top flight. But, their most recent win was achieved last weekend against Famalicao. The winning goal was netted by Jobson de Brito Gonzaga in the final ten minutes. 

Braga vs Moreirense Head to Head 

Braga boasts a long-standing dominance in this fixture after winning each of their last seven league matches against their rivals. That includes a thrilling 3-2 success in the reverse fixture this term. The last win for Moreirense in this fixture was achieved on home soil in April 2019. 

Braga vs Moreirense Prediction 

Braga’s record in this fixture looks very challenging to overlook this weekend, as they have a long-standing winning record against Moreirense. Therefore, we could see that winning sequence being maintained on Sunday with the hosts claiming the points to enhance their European prospects.
