Benfica Form

Benfica’s season is slowly coming to a close, the Lisbon club all but set to go without a trophy.

Roger Schmidt’s side had two poor results against Sporting CP before a 2-1 win against Marseille in the Europa League quarter-final first leg. They couldn’t defend the lead in France, a 1-0 loss taking the tie to extra time and penalties where went out.

The Eagles have won their previous two Primeira Liga games with relative ease. They cruised past Moreirense 3-0 at home, their last game resulting in a 3-1 win at Farense.

Benfica Injuries & Team News

Centre-back Tomás Araújo is injured but left-back Juan Bernat threatens to return from a long lay-off.

Midfielder João Neves is doubtful after suffering a nasty head injury in Faro.

Expect Schmidt to keep faith in Álvaro Fernández and Arthur Cabral.

Braga Form

Braga have won four of their previous five Primeira Liga games, starting with a 2-1 win against Gil Vicente and 5-3 victory at Portimonense where Bruma and Simon Banza bagged braces.

Artur Jorge left the club to take over Botafogo with Rui Duarte taking over as caretaker manager until the end of the season. His first games was one to forget, a 3-0 defeat against Arouca.

The Warriors bounced back with a 1-0 win at Estoril. They beat Vizela 2-1 on Saturday, coming from behind thanks to two goals from Rodrigo Zalazar.

Braga Injuries & Team News

Spanish striker Abel Ruiz is suspended after an accumulation of bookings.

Winger Roger Fernandes has been demoted into the U23 squad after a contract dispute.

Verdict

Benfica v Braga

Braga are likely to come out swinging here with BTTS and over 3.5 goals on the betslip. I am backing Simon Banza to score against Benfica, the striker with 21 Primeira Liga goals this season.
