Famalicao Preview – Can Famalicao hold firm?
Surprise package, Famalicao, will be confident that they can extend their unbeaten run in the Portuguese top flight on Friday evening when they play host to Sporting Braga having registered three wins from their previous four matches which has helped them into 5th place.
Wins against Sporting CP, Porto and Gil Vicente in recent times prove that Famalicao are certainly no mugs, and with a decent looking home record which stands at 7-3-3 25/22 under their belts so far, the hosts will fancy their chances of putting pressure on the top four.
However, with just two wins out of their last six matches, Famalicao are by no means guaranteed of all three points here, especially against a high-flying Sporting Braga who’ll be keen to further cement their current Europa League qualifier spot.
Goals therefore look the best option here as 9 of Famalicao’s 13 home matches have resulted with both teams scoring.
Sporting Braga Preview – Can Sporting Braga bounce back?
Having been handed back-to-back defeats in the Primeira Liga following the lifting of the lockdown with losses to Santa Clara 3-2 away from home and a 1-0 loss at home to Boavista, Sporting Braga will be keen to return to winning ways when they make their way to Famalicao for this important Friday night clash.
The visitors still occupy 3rd place on the Primeira Liga but their lead has now been reduced to just three points ahead of their hosts, Famalicao, so the pressure is on to at least avoid a third defeat here and let their rivals in.
Sporting Braga’s impressive five-match winning streak away from home came to an abrupt end last time out on the road with the 3-2 loss at Santa Clara, while an overall away record of 7-1-5 21/14 suggests that the visitors are susceptible to the occasional inconsistent result, but 7 of their 13 away matches have also seen both teams score.
