Braga will welcome Gil Vicente to the Estádio Municipal de Braga in the Portuguese Primeira Liga on Sunday.

The hosts are unbeaten in their last five Primeira Liga games, recording four wins in that period. In their previous outing, goals from Abel Ruiz, Pizzi, Iuri Medeiros, and Joe Mendes helped them record a 4-1 home win over Estoril Praia. They continued their winning run in the Taca de Portugal with a 5-0 win over Nacional in the semi-final first leg.
