Braga vs Union Berlin Betting Tips &— Braga to Win

Braga enters the fifth matchday still hopeful of their first-ever Champions League knockout phase appearance. Despite being four points behind second-placed Napoli in Group C, the Portuguese team has a chance to narrow the gap on Wednesday as Napoli faces Real Madrid in Spain.

If Braga secures a win on Wednesday, Artur Jorge’s team could narrow the margin to just one point, with a final game in Napoli yet to play. However, a victory at Estádio Nacional is crucial for the home team to keep their qualification prospects alive.

Braga has been performing well in recent months, suffering only two losses in their last 12 games since mid-September. Both losses were against Real Madrid. Excluding these games, Jorge’s team has secured eight victories, including a 4:1 triumph over Portimonense at the weekend.

The visiting team, Union, is currently experiencing a significant slump in form as they arrive in Portugal. Amazingly, despite securing a fourth-place finish last season, the Bundesliga team is now experiencing their worst-ever run of form, having failed to secure a win in their last 15 matches. During this dismal streak, they have only managed to achieve two draws.

After finally dismissing their long-term manager Urs Fischer, Union managed to end their nine-game losing streak in the Bundesliga over the weekend. A crucial late goal by Kevin Volland earned them a desperately needed point against Augsburg.

In the UCL, Union is still searching for their first victory in the initial four matches. However, they earned their first point in Naples during their last match. This draw was the only match in their last eight away games that the Berlin side didn’t lose.

With Braga desperate for the win that could keep them in the hunt for the last sixteen, and boasting a strong home record in European competition, I´m backing the hosts to claim the points on Wednesday.
