Santa Clara will be hoping for a better outing in their trip to Braga next up in the Portuguese Primeira Liga. The target for Braga here is to rise from fifth to fourth, while Santa Clara could leap into the top half with a win. Read on for our prediction of this match.
Braga has hit a purple patch lately, coming here unbeaten in six matches. They have won five of those six games, only drawing 1-1 with Rangers in the Europa League.
The hosts are coming off a 1-0 away win at Nice and will hope to extend the same domestically. That was a rare occasion when they failed to score 2+, only the third time in the last 10 matches.
Santa Clara are also coming off a winning outing, after beating Casa Pia 1-0 last time out. They had a whole week to prepare for this match and will hope it counts.
The visitors have gone unbeaten in three matches now, winning two. That run will be the perfect preparation for a team looking to end a long winless run against their hosts.
From their opening 13 league matches, Santa Clara managed just four victories. Having lost more than they won doesn’t place them on very good footing here, especially with five defeats coming off their latest 10 outings.

Our SC Braga vs Santa Clara Prediction
These two sides have already met this season, in a cup game that Braga won 5-0. That was the fourth time across the last seven meetings that Braga scored four or more goals in this matchup. Santa Clara will want to stop another heavy defeat and will be looking at their three-game unbeaten run for motivation.
However, they have suffered five defeats in the last 10 matches, and getting into a fixture they haven't done well in doesn't hold much promise. Our prediction for Braga v Santa Clara is for Braga to win & over 2.5 goals.
