Braga VS Pacos de Ferreira

Braga host Paco Ferreira for this Portuguese League Cup round 3 clash at Estádio Municipal de Braga early Monday morning Beijing time. The situation going into this match is very clear. Braga are massive favorites! I rarely recommend a bet on a heavy favorite at a -1.5 goals' handicap but this match in a exception! Braga have an over 80% chance to take all three points. However, my fans and I would need them to win by at least two goals' difference to win again betting on this competition. The probability is 65%. They have started the League Cup with two fine wins. Surely this competition is not their main priority his season but they seem to be motivated and Liga Portugal is on a World Cup break anyway at the moment. Their possible lineup looks quite strong indeed: Matheus; Tormena, P Oliveira, Leite; Silva, Castro, Moura, Al Musrati; V Oliveira, R Horta, Ruiz. Their excellent coach Arthur Jorge, 50, cannot, however, call upon the services of defender Nuno Sequeira,31, who has a knee injury Furthermore, Brazilian midfielder Lucas Minero has a muscle problem. Pacos de Ferreira, on the other, will have to manage without defender Joao Vigario, who has been sidelined since last August due to a nasty knee problem. Joao Silva and Brazilian defender Flavio are also out. Pacos de Ferreira possible starting lineup is Ferreira; Antunes, Lima, Baixinho, Delgado; Carlos, Pires; Uliton, Uilton, Santos; Denilson. In their most recent match Braga defeated Casa Pia 1-0 away from home. Let's remember Casa Pia have been surprisingly good and currently occupy the 5th place in Liga Portugal. Braga were, however, not at their best in this match but are such a good team this season that they often manage to find away to win, especially against worse teams than themselves. It was a pretty balanced match as a whole. Perhaps this disappointing performance affects the odds too much here. Before this they were very convincing easily swept past Trofense who play in Liga Portugal2. It was a 3-0 home win after 66% ball possession and recording much more shots on goal, scoring attempts, attacks and especially dangerous attacks – 83-25. It could easily have been 4-0 or even 5-0!

Braga are having a terrific season in the league so far and occupy the 3rd place with 29 points in the bank. They have rich owners and the team is clearly stronger than last season! Their future looks bright and there is a good atmosphere around and within the club. They are just one point behind a very big and successful club, FC Porto, who even won their Champions League group leaving Club Brugge, Bayer Leverkusen and even gigantic Spanish club, Atletico Madrid, behind! Porto have done well in the Champions League in recent years as have Sporting Lisbon – but Braga have three more points to their account than this very strong team. Braga have an excellent score difference of 29:12 and have now taken four wins in a row. Moreover, they have won eight of their latest 10 games against mostly much stronger opponents than Pacos Ferreira who are in abysmal form1 In Liga Portugal they are the rock-bottom team with just two (!) points in the bank. Their goal difference is also extremely bad 7:26! I would not be at all surprised if they failed to score here. They have last won a match on July, in a friendly match against Santa Clara, not a very strong team! In their most recent match they did play a 1-1 draw against Trofense in League Cup away from home as clear favorites according to the bookies. It was a quite balanced clash and Pacos Ferreira were far from convincing. Let's remember that Trofense are having a bad season in Liga Portugal2.. Before this the visitors were quite okay though against Casa Pia at home and took a 1-1 draw at home Casa Pia but one decent much against a clearly worse team than Braga should not get their hopes up.. They are low in confidence and according to my sources also have a bad team spirit.. 2-0 or 3-0 if I would have to pick a score here.

布拉加VS帕科斯·德·费雷拉

北京时间周一凌晨，葡萄牙联赛杯第三轮，布拉加主场迎战帕科·费雷拉，比赛将在Estádio布拉加市政球场进行。这场比赛的形势非常清楚。布拉加是大热门!我很少推荐在-1.5球障碍的大热门上下注，但这场比赛是个例外!布拉加有超过80%的机会拿到三分。然而，我的球迷和我需要他们至少赢两球才能再次赢得这场比赛。概率是65%。他们以两场漂亮的胜利开始了联赛杯。当然，这场比赛并不是他们本赛季的首要任务，但他们似乎很有动力，而且目前西甲葡萄牙正处于世界杯的间歇期。他们可能的阵容看起来相当强大:Matheus;Tormena, P Oliveira, Leite;席尔瓦，卡斯特罗，Moura, Al Musrati;奥利维拉，奥尔塔，鲁伊斯。然而，他们出色的教练、50岁的亚瑟·豪尔赫却不能唤来31岁的后卫努诺·塞奎拉，后者膝伤。此外，巴西中场卢卡斯·米内罗也有肌肉问题。另一方面，帕科斯·德·费雷拉将不得不在没有后卫若昂·维加里奥的情况下进行管理，后者自去年8月以来一直因严重的膝盖问题而缺阵。若昂·席尔瓦和巴西后卫弗拉维奥也将缺席比赛。帕科斯·德·费雷拉可能的首发阵容是费雷拉;Antunes, Lima, Baixinho, Delgado;卡洛斯,皮雷;乌利顿，乌尔顿，桑托斯;德尼尔森。在最近的一场比赛中，布拉加在客场1-0击败了卡萨皮亚。让我们记住，Casa Pia的表现令人惊讶地好，目前在西甲葡萄牙排名第五。然而，布拉加在这场比赛中并没有发挥出最好的水平，但本赛季他们是一支非常优秀的球队，他们经常设法找到客场取胜的机会，尤其是对阵比他们差的球队。总的来说，这是一场相当平衡的比赛。也许这种令人失望的表现对胜算的影响太大了。在此之前，他们非常令人信服地轻松横扫了在葡萄牙甲级联赛踢球的特伦芬斯队。在66%的控球率和更多的射门，得分尝试，进攻，尤其是危险的进攻后，这是一个3-0的主场胜利- 83-25。比分很可能是4-0甚至5-0!

到目前为止，布拉加本赛季在联赛中表现出色，以29分的积分榜上排名第三。他们有富有的老板，球队显然比上赛季更强大!他们的未来看起来很光明，俱乐部内外的气氛都很好。他们只落后一个非常成功的大俱乐部波尔图一分，波尔图甚至赢得了他们的欧冠小组，而布鲁日俱乐部，勒沃库森，甚至是巨大的西班牙俱乐部，马德里竞技落后!波尔图近年来在欧冠联赛中表现出色，里斯本竞技也是如此，但布拉加比这支强队多得3分。布拉加以29:12的悬殊比分取得了四连胜。此外，他们在最近的10场比赛中赢了8场，对手大多比状态糟糕的帕科斯·费雷拉强得多。在葡萄牙甲级联赛中，他们是垫底的球队，只有2分(!)他们的净胜球也是非常糟糕的7:26!如果他们在这里不能进球，我一点也不会感到惊讶。他们上一次赢球是在7月份，是对圣克拉拉的友谊赛，那不是一支很强的球队!在最近一场联赛杯客场1-1战平特伦芬斯的比赛中，据博彩公司称，他们是最受欢迎的球队。这是一场相当平衡的比赛，帕科斯·费雷拉的表现一点也不令人信服。让我们记住特伦芬斯在葡萄牙甲级联赛中正经历一个糟糕的赛季。在此之前，客队在主场对阵卡萨皮亚的比赛中表现不错，并在主场1-1战平了卡萨皮亚，但在对阵比布拉加更糟糕的球队时，他们不应该抱太大希望。据我的消息来源，他们缺乏信心，团队精神也很差。2-0或者3-0如果我要选一个分数的话。
