The Primeira Liga match between Braga and Estrela Amadora will take place at Estadio Municipal de Braga on Sunday at 2:00 am IST.
Braga will face Estrela Amadora at home in round 24 of the Portuguese Primeira Liga on Saturday. Braga aims to equal Porto’s points by winning this match. Estrela Amadora hasn’t won any of their last eight away games since November and hopes to break this streak.
Braga won 4-0 against Boavista in their recent match at Estadio do Bessa. This victory came after Braga’s disappointment of being knocked out of the Europa League. Simon Banza played exceptionally well, scoring two goals and assisting another. Braga has won three consecutive games, scoring nine goals and conceding three. This has boosted their chances of qualifying for the Europa League. They have won 14 out of 23 Primeira Liga matches, earning 46 points and ranking fourth. Braga has been strong at home, undefeated in their four league matches this year, with two wins and two draws. They’ve earned 21 points from 11 matches at Estadio Braga Municipal.
Estrela Amadora returned to the top flight after 15 years but are now struggling to stay in it. They drew 1-1 with Chaves last weekend, despite controlling most of the game. They haven’t won in nine out of their last ten matches, dropping into the relegation zone. Currently, they are 15th in the league with 22 points, tied with Estoril Praia, Rio Ave, and Portimonense. A win could move them up to 12th place. However, their away record is poor, with no wins in their last eight away matches since October. They’ve lost five and drawn three away games during this time.
Braga probable starting lineup: Matheus, Gomez, Oliveira, Fonte, Borja, Carvalho, Zalazar, Fernandes, Ruiz, R Horta, Banza
Estrela Amadora probable starting lineup: Brigido, Lima, Mendes, Gaspar, Santos, Oakley-Boothe, Cordeiro, Bucca, Varela, Tavares, Jaba
