Sporting Braga are playing really bad in my opinion contrary to what I expected from them for this season. They bought some good players from some portuguese teams of the last season, the midfielder Lucas Mineiro from Gil Vicente, Diogo Leite loaned by Porto, Mario Gonzalez from Tondela but due to the initial bad results they decided to focus in the formation of the clubs and to bet on their young players instead of those ones and so they already sold Mario Gonzalez, Chiquinho and Lucas Piazon. In the last week they lost 2-0 in Moldavia against Sheriff Tiraspol and this Thursday they were able to win 2-0 at home and eliminated Sherrif by penalties. The game was really tough for them and very physically demanding as they played 120 minutes + the pressure of the penalties, and due to this is expected that the coach Carlos Carvalhal will rotate a lot the players to have cold legs and mainly because he said that he counts with all the players. They have some absences, the most important are in the defense as the most experienced player of the team is injured, the centre-back Paulo Oliveira who played in Vitoria Guimaraes and Sporting CP, the best left-back is injured too Nuno Sequeira and the winger Roger Fernandes. Is expected that the best player and one of the best scorers of the league will rest in the bench due to the amount of games they played in the last week.

Probable line-up: Matheus; Yan Couto - Tormena - Bruno Rodrigues - David Carmo - Buta; Andre Castro - Andre Horta; Miguel Fale - Abel Ruiz and Iuri Medeiros.

Santa Clara started the season so well almost getting qualified for the first time in their history in an european competition, but they faced many interin problems as the best player left the team, the president, the sports director and then the coach. Then they decided to opt to buy Nuno Campos as a coach without any previous experience and that experience went terribly wrong as after 6 games he was sacked and the physical terapist assumed the team for 3 games with 1 defeat and 2 wins, one of them against Sporting CP. The players love the physical terapist Ricardo Sousa and the players demanded to the president that when he decides to hire a coach the new coach needed to maintain in the structure the physical terapist Ricardo Sousa. The new coach is Mario Silva who was champion in many youth teams of FC Porto is putting the team playing with a lot of quality and highlighting all the high individual quality that exists in the squad and in the last 4 games they only lost 1 and it was against Benfica. They have 3 amazing players in an amazing moment, the midfielders Lincoln and Hidemasa Morita who is in my opinion one of the best midfielders playing in Portugal and the striker Cryzan. I honestly do not see Santa Clara losing this game against an exhausted team, and in maximum they will lose by 1 goal.

Probable line-up: Marco Pereira; Rafael Ramos - Villanueva - Boateng - Mansur; Anderson Carvalho - Morita and Lincoln; Rui Costa - Ricardinho and Cryzan.

在我看来，布拉加竞技踢得真的很糟糕，与我本赛季对他们的期望相反。他们从上个赛季的一些葡萄牙球队购买了一些优秀的球员，中场球员卢卡斯·米内罗从吉尔·维森特那里买来，迪奥戈·莱特从波尔图租借过来，来自通德拉的马里奥·冈萨雷斯，但由于最初的糟糕结果，他们决定把重点放在俱乐部的组建上，并把赌注押在他们的年轻球员身上，而不是那些球员身上，所以他们已经卖掉了马里奥·冈萨雷斯、奇昆尼奥和卢卡斯·皮亚松。上周他们在摩尔达维亚以0 - 2输给了治安官蒂拉斯波尔，本周四他们在主场以0 - 2取胜，并通过点球淘汰了治安官。这场比赛对他们来说真的很艰难，他们打了120分钟的比赛，加上点球的压力，身体上的要求非常高，预计教练卡洛斯·卡瓦拉尔会轮换很多球员，让他们双腿发冷，主要是因为他说他和所有的球员都一样。他有一些缺阵，最重要的是防守，因为球队最有经验的球员受伤了，中后卫保罗·奥利维拉在维托里亚·吉马拉斯和里斯本竞技踢球，最好的左后卫也受伤了，塞奎拉和边锋费尔南德斯也受伤了。由于上个星期他们打了那么多的比赛，预计联盟最好的球员和最好的得分手之一将会在替补席上休息。

圣克拉拉本赛季开局很好，几乎在他们的历史上第一次获得欧洲比赛的资格，但他们面临许多内部问题，因为最好的球员离开了球队，高层，体育总监，然后教练。然后他们决定买下努诺·坎波斯作为一个没有任何经验的教练，这个经验出了严重的问题，在6场比赛后，他被解雇了，理疗师假设球队3场比赛1败2胜，球员们喜欢身体上的超级巨星里卡多·苏萨，球员们要求高层，当他决定聘请教练时，新教练需要保持身体上的超级巨星里卡多·苏萨。新教练是马里奥·席尔瓦，他曾在波尔图的许多青年队中获得冠军，他将球队打得很好，并强调了球队中存在的所有高水平的个人素质，在过去的4场比赛中，他们只输了一场，而且是对本菲卡。他们有三名出色的球员，中场球员林肯和盛田秀马，在我看来盛田秀马是葡萄牙最好的中场球员之一，还有前锋克里赞。老实说，我不认为圣克拉拉会输掉这场比赛，面对一支筋疲力尽的球队，他们最多输一个球。
