SC Braga has had significant momentum, whether in the Europa League or the Champions League in recent years; they used some of that experience to complete a satisfactory start to the Europa League, with two wins against historic European rivals, first against Feyenoord and then against Celtic, to earn six out of six possible points.
In the third round of the Europa League, SC Braga plans to continue recovering from their poor start in the league, where they are trailing in eighth place. They have a good chance of winning on Thursday; at least that's what the sportsbook suggests, making them -109 favorites to beat Red Star Belgrade.
The Serbian Super League dominators continue to be unstoppable, scoring 41 goals and conceding only 7 in the league, in a perfect 30-point start that, however, has not been able to transfer their success to European competitions. Outside of Belgrade, this team hasn't had many successes at the continental level; It's concerning that they've lost 11 of their last 12 European away matches.

Our SC Braga vs Red Star Belgrade Prediction
Braga's young 22-year-old Spanish striker, Gabri Martínez, was not called up for SC Braga's last cup match; he's likely being saved for the Red Star game, considering he's scored three goals and assisted once in his last four Europa League appearances.
However, the well-known Austrian veteran striker Marko Arnautovic is currently in excellent form; he scored 4 of Austria's 10 goals during their resounding rout of San Marino and has also netted a few goals for the Serbian club as time ran out.
Our prediction for SC Braga vs Red Star is: Draw.
