Vizela vs Braga Prediction

The relegation battle in the Primeira Liga is intensely competitive, with just two points separating 13th from last. All six spots in this mix could be swapped this weekend depending on results and Vizela will try their best to get something from this game.

Braga are still in the title race to some extent and can ill afford to drop many unnecessary points. Their games have been highly entertaining and they have averaged almost three goals scored per game. It has come at the price of a porous defense though, with Braga's 19 goals conceded representing one more than their relegation-threatened hosts.

We are backing Braga to do enough to leave with a narrow win.

Prediction: Vizela 1-2 Braga
