Braga vs Casa Pia Prediction

Braga's Europa League run has come to a harrowing end but they will continue their European sojourn in the Conference League next year. Things have been better domestically and their positive start to the campaign has put them on course to secure a top-two finish.

Casa Pia, for their part, have punched above their weight following their return to the top-flight after an 83-year absence. They will want to send a statement of intent by registering a scalp against one of the league's biggest sides.

Both teams have compact styles and the game could be characterized by few goalscoring chances. However, we expect Braga to do enough to nick a narrow win.

Prediction: Braga 1-0 Casa Pia
