Prediction: 2-1
Braga
All eyes will be on Estadio do Dragao when Porto and Braga face each other in the Primeira Liga round 14. The Dragons suffered elimination in the Champions League on Tuesday, meaning that they will be fully focused on the national championship in the remainder of the season. Porto are on an eight-game winning run in Primeira Liga, and it is no wonder the bookies see them as favourites to win Sunday’s clash.
Midfielder Mateus Uribe is back from the Champions League ban, while all Claudio Ramos, Joao Mario, Chico Conceicao, and Ivan Marcano miss out with injuries. Braga, on the other hand, have been impressive at home ground of late, but seeing that they are not regarded as good travelers, we believe that there is a big value in betting on the league leaders. Midfielder Lucas Mineiro is banned for the visitors.
Highlighted Player (Pepe):
Pepe is a professional footballer who plays for Porto as a defender. The Portuguese international played for Maritimo at the start of his senior career and in 2004 he moved to Porto. After making 64 league appearances for the Dragons, he signed a contract with Real Madrid in 2007 and he quickly established himself as a first-team regular.
Pepe is well known for his hard tackles and referees often show him red card. The Real Madrid centre back often played as a defensive midfielder under Jose Mourinho and it has to be noted that he scored five goals in all competitions in the 2013/2014 La Liga campaign.
The Portuguese footballer won his second Champions League trophy with Real Madrid in the 2015/2016 season and later in 2016 he helped A Selecao win the European Championship trophy. Portugal defeated France in the title game and Pepe played an important role in Fernando Santos’ team in the Euro 2016 final. The Real Madrid defender was born in Maceio, Brazil on 26 February, 1983.
Highlighted Team (Braga):
Braga are a Portuguese club that have always been in the shadow of Primeira Liga giants Porto, Benfica and Sporting. Os Minhotos were founded on 19 January, 1921 and they originally played in green and white kits. After the World War II they changed their kits to red and they have been wearing red shirts and white shorts ever since.
Braga play their home games at Estadio Municipal de Braga, the stadium that was opened in December, 2003. Os Minhotos have yet to win the Primeira Liga title, but they finished the 2009/2010 campaign in second position in the standings, just five points behind champions Benfica.
In 2011 Braga participated in the Europa League final, but fellow Portuguese outfit Porto proved to be a big catch for Os Minhotos. Anyhow, that is regarded as the club’s biggest success. Vitoria de Guimaraes are considered Braga’s bitter rivals and the two teams face each other in the Minho derby.
