Sporting Braga Newcastle United betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

This match has a great tendency to be open, as the two teams are holders of highly evolved athletes at a technical and tactical level. Even so, we believe that Braga will dominate part of the match and create the best opportunities, but the quick transitions of the English team should create several problems for the opponent. So, and taking into account these factors, risking in favor of a match with a few goals is a good option.

In this match at home, the coach Abel Ferreira must play in 4-2-3-1 to benefit from the ball possession and the organized attacks. In some moments in the match the team must lower the block, looking for only the counterattack: Ricardo Horta and Wilson Eduardo are very fast and excellent players in the offensive transition. It seems that the coach can count on all his players.

(0‑2) Newcastle United. In the last 10 away matches Newcastle United has won 2, tied 3 and lost 5.

It seems that the coach can count on all the players at his disposal.
