3.05Tip and bets
Braga are only fifth in the table and the hosts will certainly have plenty of motivation today – they will not be satisfied with any result other than a win. Famalicao is not a walkover opponent, but the Whites have seriously slowed down lately, having only two points in the last three matches, and the guests are significantly inferior in class, so it makes sense to give preference to the favorite.
We think that the guests have no chance. Forecast - Asian handicap (-1) on Braga . This bet is offered with odds of 1.91
Bet on total
Braga will undoubtedly be in a very determined mood today – fifth place in the table clearly does not correspond to the club’s ambitions. The Gunners have a serious advantage in class and experience, they are traditionally effective in attack at home, it will be almost impossible to reliably win back Famalicao. At the same time, the Whites will also take risks, they regularly score against Braga, they are quite capable of responding with one goal.
Bet - both teams to score. This bet is offered for 1.89
Bet on corners
Braga are the favourites and will probably spend the entire 90 minutes attacking – the home team should win confidently on corners.
Bet - Asian handicap (-3) on corners for Braga. This bet is offered for 1.85
