Sporting Braga will welcome Panathinaikos to the Estadio Municipal de Braga on Wednesday for the first leg of the Champions League play-off, with kickoff slated for 19:00 GMT.
Braga warmed up for their play-off clash against Panathinaikos with a 2-4 win away to Chaves on Saturday in the Primeira Liga. Although Chavez had Ygor Nogueira sent off in the 80th minute, Braga were 2-3 up at this stage, and they added another goal in the 96th minute to win 2-4.
The win at Chavez was important for Braga because it allowed them to return to winning ways after losing their Primeira Liga season opener at home to Famalicao. Braga will hope to retain their good form going into the match against Panathinaikos on Wednesday.
