Monaco lost the first leg against Braga by a surprising 2-0. This season is not going very well for them and they are at the moment in the 8th place and with 6 points behind the 5th place where now is Strasbourg where Monaco lost 1-0 as away 3 days ago. Monaco in that game against Strasbourg for the league rested some key players like Ben Yedder, Caio Henrique, Vanderson and Matsima. In the first leg they lost 2-0, but they were clearly better than Braga, but they did not had the luck of the game, they suffered the 1st goal of the game in the 1st minute of the game by a mistake of the Monaco's defender which gave the ball to Abel Ruiz, then had 2 goals disallowed by VAR and luckily in the last minutes (minute 89) in an amazing header by Vitinha, the next star of Minho. Monaco are very strong at home and in the last 13 games at home they only lost one game, but the main reason for the bad shape of Monaco is that the last 4 games of Monaco they played always as away and it is affecting the confidence of the team that is needing their supporters to turn these bad results. They showed to be easily better team as Braga and to have much better players to beat them. Amazing news for Monaco is that the midfielder Fofana is back from suspension and will add a lot to the midfield.

Probable line-up: Nubel; Vanderson - Disasi - Badiashile - Caio Henrique; Tchouameni - Fofana - Gelson Martins - Diop; Kevin Volland and Ben Yedder.

Braga are doing a very bad season, mainly if we look at the expectations of this season where everyone expected Braga to be fighting for the first 3 places with Benfica, Porto and Sporting CP. They are right now in the 4th place and I really do not believe that they will finish in 4th as Gil Vicente are doing an amazing and the best season of their history. Last weekend they played against Gil Vicente and lost 1-0 and was fully deserved by Gil and now Gil Vicente are only 1 point behind Braga in the fight for the 4th place and Braga will still need to play against Benfica and Porto. They are playing really bad this season, and even worse when playing away from home and have a lot of problems to win as away. In the last round they lost 2-0 against Sheriff as away in the 1st leg. I cannot see Braga having the same luck they had in the 1st leg and this game I am pretty confident that they will lose by 1 or 2 goals. The coach Carlos Carvalhal already said that the most important is to advance to the next round and that if they are winning by only 1 goal they will need to defend it, and so 1-0 is enough for us here and I think that Braga will be eliminated. He will use a more defensive team and so will play with a right defender in the left side - Fabiano, as he is stronger defensively than offensively, contrary to Rodrigo Gomes.

Probable line-up: Matheus; Yan Couto - Tormena - Paulo Oliveira - Diogo Carmo - Fabiano; Al Musrati - André Castro; Iuri Medeiros - Ricardo Horta and Vitinha.

摩纳哥在首回合对布拉加的比赛中出人意料地以2-0失利。这个赛季对他们来说不是很顺利，他们现在排名第八，比第五名的斯特拉斯堡落后6分，而摩纳哥在三天前0:1输给了斯特拉斯堡。摩纳哥在联赛对阵斯特拉斯堡的那场比赛中让一些关键球员如本·耶德、卡奥·恩里克、范德森和马西马休息了下来。在第一回合他们以0 - 2告负,但他们显然比布拉加,但是他们没有游戏的运气,他们遭受的第一目标游戏比赛的第一分钟的错误摩纳哥的后卫把球给亚伯儒兹,然后有两个进球被VAR取消，幸运的是，在最后时刻(第89分钟)，米尼奥的下一颗明星维蒂纳的一个惊人的头球。摩纳哥非常强大,在过去的13场比赛他们只输了一场比赛,但摩纳哥的糟糕的主要原因是,摩纳哥的最后4场比赛他们总是玩,它是影响团队的信心,需要他们的支持者把这些不好的结果。他们表现出了比布拉加更好的阵容，并且有更好的球员击败他们。对于摩纳哥来说，令人惊讶的消息是中场球员福法纳从禁赛中回来了，他将为中场增添许多力量。

布拉加这个赛季表现很糟糕，如果我们看看这个赛季的期望，每个人都认为布拉加会和本菲卡一起争夺前三名，他们现在排名第四，我真的不相信他们会以第四的成绩结束比赛，因为吉尔·维森特做了一个惊人的赛季，这是他们历史上最好的赛季。上周对阵吉尔·维森特，他们0 - 1输掉了比赛，而吉尔·维森特完全配得上他，现在吉尔·维森特在第四名的争夺中仅落后布拉加1分，而布拉加还需要对阵本菲卡和波尔图。他们这个赛季打得真的很糟糕，在客场打得更糟，在客场取胜有很多问题。在上一轮比赛中，他们在第一回合客场以0比2输给了Sheriff。我不认为布拉加会有和第一回合一样的运气，这场比赛我很有信心他们会输掉1到2个球。主教练卡洛斯·卡瓦略已经说过，最重要的是晋级下一轮，如果他们只赢一个球，他们就需要卫冕，所以1-0对我们来说已经足够了，我认为布拉加会被淘汰。他将使用一支更具防守性的球队，因此他将在左路使用一名右后卫——法比亚诺，因为他的防守比进攻更强，与罗德里戈·戈梅斯相反。
