Vitoria Guimaraes’ sole defeat this season occurred during an away game.

At least three goals have been scored in three of Braga’s last four matches.

Correct Score Prediction: Braga 2, Vitoria Guimaraes 1

This matchup is expected to be closely contested between two strong teams that have begun the season. Vitoria is currently one point ahead of Braga in the league table. Still, they have exhibited weaknesses in away games, which makes us favor the unbeaten home side. Braga has found the net at least twice in three of their last four matches, while Vitoria has scored at least once in six of their previous seven outings.

Home: 1/1 (2.00) – 50%

Draw: 12/5 (3.40) – 29.4%

Away: 14/5 (3.80) – 26.3%

Braga is slightly favored for this match, but Vitoria’s strong start to the season means they don’t need to be clearer favorites. Ladbrokes has set the odds for a Braga win at 1/1, while a victory for Vitoria Guimaraes is listed at 14/5. The draw, which would be a respectable outcome for the visitors, is priced at 12/5.
