Casa Pia
PortugalCurrent form

So far, Alexandre Santana team has no problems achieving its goal and is in eighth place in the table with 20 points. They have already managed to break away from the relegation zone by eight points, and such a handicap allows them to look to the future with optimism, but for now it does not guarantee anything.

2.55Tip and bets
Braga will certainly be maximally motivated and charged for success today – they managed to return to the fourth line in the table, but the gap to Sporting is too big, and any mistake can be fatal. In general, the Gunners are quite capable of achieving their goal – Casa Pia is seriously inferior in class and did not score a single point in the last two matches against Braga.
We think that the guests have no chance. Forecast - Asian handicap (-1) on Braga . This bet is offered with odds of 1.79
Bet on total
Braga will clearly be counting on all three points at home and will probably rely on attack in an attempt to solve all their problems without any problems. It is unlikely that Casa Pia has any real chances to play reliably in defense, the opponent has a serious advantage in class and is traditionally productive at home. At the same time, in the last two matches, the guests looked solid in attack, they are quite capable of responding with one goal.
Bet - both teams to score. This bet is offered for 1.95
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 1.79
