Head to Head


Lusitano Evora have a 14-7 advantage against alongside four draws.

They last met in 1985, Braga winning 1-0 which made it three straight at home.

Braga Form


Braga have struggled to gain any momentum this season, struggling in the Europa League where they suffered 3-0 defeats at Olympiakos and Roma.

The Warriors lost their final game of the year, 2-1 against Casa Pia. It was another game of missed opportunities after ending with 16-8 shots.

Carlos Carvalhal couldn’t have asked for a better start to 2025 after beating Benfica 2-1 in Lisbon. Fran Navarro scored 17 minutes into his debut and Robson Bambu netted before the break, holding on under late pressure.

Braga met Benfica again in the League Cup semi-finals on Wednesday. They couldn’t replicate their performance against the Eagles, going down 3-0 in Leiria.

Lusitano Evora Form


Lusitano Evora narrowly missed out on the promotion group in the Campeonato last season, the fourth division in Portuguese football.

Pedro Russiano’s side are in the race again this campaign, currently in second spot, one point behind Moncarapachense. They have got through three matches in the Portuguese Cup, all at home.

The Lusitanistas defeated Academico Viseu and Estoril in penalty shootouts. They then beat AVS 3-2, Dida scoring two goals in a huge upset.

The victory started a five game winning streak including wins against fellow promotion hopefuls Louletano and Sintrense. They lost 3-1 at Lagoa last time out, Martim Aguas scoring a late consolation.

Verdict

Lusitano Evora have done a great job to reach the Portuguese Cup Round of 16. This will be their first contest on the road, Braga backed to win to nil.
