Anytime Correct Score 0-1
Fiorentina have been experiencing a bad start in their matches recently. To illustrate, The Violas conceded first in five of their previous six matches and in their last two home games. Braga on the other side scored first in nine of their 14 away games in all competitions.
Fiorentina
After a 0-4 away win in Braga in the first leg of the Europa Conference League round of 32 clash, Fiorentina almost secured qualification to the next round. This was the first time the Violas won by such a huge margin in all competitions in a season during which they scored an average of 1.20 goals per game.
The defense has to be at its best though for coach Vincenzo Italiano’s team as they conceded at least a goal in 11 of their 17 games at the Artemio Franchi. It is important for Fiorentina not to concede early in this match and not to give hope for Braga to chase the game.
Braga
Braga have a mountain to climb as they travel to Florence and try to win by a five-goal margin. Surely, that is something almost impossible since the Italians are known for their strong defense and the ability to maintain a lead.
The Portuguese side finished third in Group D of the Europa League despite picking up ten points from three wins and a draw. Braga’s five of their seven matches in Europe produced two or more goals while both teams scored in three of them.
Fiorentina’s main aim will be to keep their huge advantage from the first leg and not allow Braga to get into the match by scoring an early goal. Consequently, we predict a closed game by the Italians which may result in a low-scoring match which we will combine with a Fiorentina double chance.
Italians are usually experts in ending a match in a draw and this can be the case here for Fiorentina. Braga will attack from the beginning to try to close the gap and might score one but The Violas have the ability to retaliate on the breaks. Thus for our quick profit option, we will predict this game to end in a draw that has odds of 3.88 at 1xBet.
Ricardo Horta is one of Braga’s best players this season. The Portuguese international has scored 13 goals this season of which two were in the Europa League and added seven assists for his teammates to score. Playing as a left winger Horta has a rating of 9.35/
