In another Thursday evening match in the second round of the Europa League group stage, Portuguese Braga will play at home with German Union. Your attention is invited to the forecast for this meeting.
"Braga"
"Braga" gives probably the best start to the season in recent years, having not suffered a single defeat, and at the moment being on the current series of six wins in a row. In the first round of the Europa League, the Gunsmiths dealt with the Swedish Malmo (2-0) on the road, scoring a goal in the middle of each half. Last Sunday, the Brazhans beat Rio Ave away (3:2), remaining in second place in the Primeira Liga standings.
Union Berlin
Berliners have made a great start this season in the German Bundesliga, where they are currently the sole leader, with 14 points in the asset. Last Sunday, Union managed to beat Cologne away (1-0), thanks to a quick goal. But the European Cup campaign by Urs Fischer's team was launched unsuccessfully – with a home defeat against the Belgian Union Saint-Gilloise (0:1).
Statistics and figures
- Braga has not lost any of the seven matches played this season, and the last 6 matches have been won;
- In five of the last six matches, Braga has not conceded;
- Braga has a 7-match unbeaten streak at home (6 wins + 1 draw);
- "Union" has lost only 1 match out of the last 12, winning 7 times;
- In five of the last seven matches of the "Union", the "Total less than 2.5" bet was held;
- "Union" has a 6-match unbeaten away streak (4 wins + 2 draws).
Forecast
The formidable weapon of both teams is a solid and stable defensive game, which they should use in this meeting as well. "Braga" is still more experienced, and will play on its own field, so it should be closer to victory than "Union".
