Union Berlin vs Braga Predictions

• Union Berlin have lost their last five matches on the spin
• Braga have posted three wins in their last five fixtures
• Both teams have scored in each of Braga’s last six games

Capital club in state of disarray

Union Berlin’s maiden Champions League voyage began with a suckerpunch 1-0 defeat to Real Madrid last month and they have looked hopeless in the Bundesliga this term.

The capital club could hardly have asked for a more significant first match in the Champions League and nearly held Real Madrid to a draw at the Santiago Bernabeu, only for Jude Bellingham to pop up in the 94th minute and consign them to defeat.

Fans may have hoped Union, who finished fourth in last term’s Bundesliga, could have at least taken confidence from the performance against Real Madrid into their subsequent league games but defeats to Hoffenheim and Heidenheim have since followed.

They are in disarray right now, having lost their last five games on the spin in all competitions and they could be in for another tough night at home to Braga.

Braga can build on Napoli performance

Union will have their fans behind them in their first Champions League home game on Tuesday but results have been lacking and Braga could capitalise.

Braga have started their Portuguese Primeira Liga season with four wins from seven games, while they were also unlucky in their Champions League opener, losing 2-1 to Napoli after an 88th-minute own goal from Sikou Niakate.

This time around they are worth backing draw no bet, while a bet on Braga to win 2-1 is the way to go in the correct score market.
