Following their last performance, Braga
will be looking for more of the same after defeating Nacional 0-3 in Primeira
Liga. Carlos Carvalhal's Braga have been rewarded for their efforts on goal ten
times in their last six games. In contrast, they have conceded six goals in
those games.
Maccabi Tel Aviv comes into this game off a
0-2 Ligat HaAl victory against FC Ashdod. At least three goals have been scored
in five of Maccabi Tel Aviv's past six games. The average number of goals
scored per match over that time period was 3.17, with Maccabi Tel Aviv scoring
an average of 2.83. We'll have to see if this trend can be continued here.
In this encounter, we believe Braga will be
able to produce a respectable amount of opportunities and shots on goal. At the
same time, Maccabi Tel Aviv may struggle to score their own goal, however we
believe they will manage to get on the scoreboard.
