Our prediction for this Portugal League Cup match:
All eyes will be on Estadio Municpal de Braga when Sporting Braga and Porto face each other in the Taca da Liga final. The Dragons aim to get their revenge on the Reds for the Primeira Liga defeat, but beating Micael Sequeira’s troops away from home is easier said than done. Cameroon international Vincent Aboubakar has overcome his injury, and he is likely to be recalled to the starting XI.
Danilo, on the other hand, is a major doubt, and he will be assessed ahead of the match. Sporting Braga boss Ruben Amorim has a full squad to choose from, and the hosts are likely to find the net in the Taca da Liga final. Given Porto’s attacking potential, we believe that there is a big value in betting on both teams to score. When the two teams met in the 2012/13 Taca da Liga final Sporting Braga defeated Porto 1-0.

Porto form biggest rivalries with two other Big Three clubs in Portugal and regular league title contenders – Benfica and Sporting CP. Rivalries between the clubs stem from the historical, political, economical and cultural discrepancies between the cities of Porto and Lisbon. The Dragons, as they are commonly known in Portugal, are the second most successful Portuguese team with a total of 74 trophies to their name.
Porto hold a record of five consecutive league titles which are part of the total tally of 27 Primeira Liga trophies.
