Braga will be greatly pleased with their form in recent matches. They have managed five wins to go with a defeat in their last six matches. They have a particularly good record against Pacos Ferreira having not lost to them in their last five meetings. Braga are certainly the favourites in this fixture and will look to prove that on the field. The club will be eager to end the group with their 100% record intact.
Pacos de Ferreira will be disappointed with their recent results. They have managed two draws to go with four defeats in their last six games. In fact, the club is yet to win a single game in the Portuguese league so far with two draws and 11 defeats. Undoubtedly, it has been a horrific season so far for Pacos Ferreira. Their defensive vulnerabilities are highlighted by the fact that they haven’t kept a clean sheet in 21 games.
Braga might be tempted to field a relatively weaker XI with qualification already secured and a golden chance to spread game time. Pacos Ferreira, too might go in with rotations with the result bearing no effect on their qualification scenario.
