Braga vs Lazio Preview and Team News
Braga Team News
Braga have been performing well in the domestic championship and have an opportunity to go for second place. However, the same cannot be said about their chances in the Europa League, where it’s unlikely they’ll advance to the knockout stage.
Braga did everything to take home at least a draw in the previous round, but Royale Union’s goalkeeper gave one of the best performances of his career. The only thing optimal for sides against Lazio is a win.
Vitor Carvalho let his teammates down when he came on as a substitute and picked up two yellow cards in the last round. Bruma was also sent off from the bench, albeit after a final whistle.
Braga predicted lineup vs Lazio (4-2-3-1): Matheus; Gómez, Arrey-Mbi, Niakate, Marín; Gorby, Moutinho; Roger, Horta, Martinez; El Ouazzani.
Lazio Team News
Lazio have weakened noticeably over the past month. Out of seven matches in Serie A, they were only able to win two. But injuries have also taken a toll on the Italian squad’s performance.
Despite everything, Marco Baroni deserves praise. Having no previous experience in the Europa League, the manager had an almost perfect campaign, occupying first place in the standings. They’ll try to finish the group stage with no losses.
Mattia Zaccagni and Nicolo Rovella will serve suspensions. Nuno Tavares has suffered another injury and will be left out of the squad. Matias Vecino, Manuel Lazzari, and Patric are also sidelined.
Lazio predicted lineup vs Braga (4-2-3-1): Mandas; Marušić, Gigot, Romagnoli, Pellegrini; Dele-Bashiru, Guendouzi; Tchaouna, Dia, Pedro; Noslin.

- Pick: Lazio or Draw
- Odds: 2.20 (22Bet)
- Score prediction: Braga vs Lazio
At first glance, the visitors don’t need anything from this encounter. They sit first and have already qualified for the playoffs. They will likely use bench players, while the hosts will go for a victory.
However, Lazio are still a strong team even without their top talent. The hosts, in turn, will lack the help of three important players. One of them, Bruma, is the top scorer and assistant in the Europa League for the club.
Braga were lackluster throughout the tournament, and we don’t think they’ll be able to defeat their visitors. Our first pick for the game would be Lazio or draw.
Braga vs Lazio Prediction, Betting Tip
- Pick: Both Teams to Score
- Odds: 1.75 (22Bet)
Lazio have scored at least twice in six of their previous eight matches at European tournaments. They have enough quality players in attack, and we expect a productive performance from them.
Braga will be forced to attack from the first minute, which means that the visitors will have enough opportunities for counterattacks. They’ve already conceded more than 1.5 goals on average in the Europa League, and it’ll be challenging to keep a clean sheet against the rivals.
With Braga having nothing to lose and Lazio playing without pressure, we anticipate an exchange of goals in this fixture. Our second pick would be for both teams to score.
