Braga vs Slovan Liberec Betting Tips

These are the top two sides in Group F, which also includes Marseille and either could seal qualification to the last 32 on Thursday night. Braga are 2 points clear of the Czech side at the top of the group having won 3 of their opening 4 matches including a 1-0 win in Liberec on match-day one.

Slovan Liberec responded well to that home defeat though, winning impressively and surprisingly away to Marseille, prior to taking 4 points off Groningen, who have already been eliminated.

Neither side have exactly played thrilling football though and this has all the makings of a low-scoring contest. 3 of Braga’s 4 matches in the group so far have finished with 1-0 scorelines while there have only been a total of 5 goals in the games involving Slovan Liberec.

4 of Braga’s last 5 matches in all competitions have had 1 or fewer goals in them, while Slovan Liberec have won 3 of their last 4 matches, but all 3 were by 1-0 scorelines. With both sides well placed in the group and not wanting to do anything to jeapordise their chances we may well see another really cautious game here and backing there to be under 2.5 goals in it at odds of 4/5 seems like a really smart move.

With home advantage and the confidence of having won the reverse fixture away from home, Braga certainly look the more likely winners though and are worth a punt at 5/1 to nick this game 1-0.
