Sporting Braga will play in front of the home fans at Estadio Municipal de Braga on Saturday when they welcome Porto for a one-on-one Liga Portugal clash scheduled to kick off at 19:30 GMT.
Key Highlights
Braga Will Look to Leapfrog Porto to Third on the Table
Braga have won four times in their last five outings, losing once in this run. They have hauled 68 points after 33 rounds of fixtures. They sit fourth on the table, one point behind third-placed Porto ahead of their clash on Saturday.
Braga have not kept a clean sheet in their last four matches, conceding seven times in this run. They will look to steady their defensive structure ahead of facing Porto.
A win for Braga will see them leapfrog Porto into third and claim a Europa Conference League spot in the Liga Portugal.
Porto Will Look to Make it Three Consecutive Wins to End the Season
Porto are third on the table with 69 points, 18 points behind champions Sporting Lisbon. This will be disappointing for the habitual league winners.
However, their poor form that has seen them win 21 times, draw six times, and lose six times, has been underwhelming. Porto look to win in the last match of the season at Braga as they look to keep third spot and a place in the Europa Conference League.
