There’s relegation drama on the final day of the Liga Portugal when a desperate Estrela Amadora travels to Braga on Saturday. Estrela are level on points with Casa Pia in the relegation playoffs zone. With Braga already securing the Conference League, this will be a do or die affair for Estrela, which is why we’re backing the away team in this match prediction.
Estrela Amadora (15th) heads into this finale with their top-flight status hanging by a thread. Level on 29 points with Casa Pia, only an eight-goal difference advantage keeps them out of the playoff spot. While they haven't won in six games, their gritty 0-0 draw against Famalicão last week showed they are willing to fight.
For the Tricolores, even a point could be the difference between safety and a nervous playoff. Braga (4th) has little left to play for after locking in their European qualifiers spot. Their recent form has been uncharacteristically sluggish, winning only one of their last five matches.
Coming off a 2-2 draw with Benfica, Braga has looked vulnerable defensively, conceding nine goals in their last five outings. With nothing but pride on the line, the motivation gap between the two sides is immense, which is why we think Estrela will win or draw.
