- Competition: Liga Portugal
- Date: Thursday, 25th April 2025
- Kickoff: 20:30 UK / 21:30 CEST
- Venue: Estadio Municipal de Famalicao (Vila Nova de Famalicao)
Famalicao have another good season. They are seventh on the table, but the fifth position, which could give the Conference League appearance next season, is only two points ahead of the team from Vila Nova de Famalicao. Hugo Oliveira's team won three of the last four matches. In the previous game, Famalicao lost 2-1 on the road against Porto. According to the stats, the teams were pretty even, and it wouldn't be undeserved if Famalicao went home with one point.
Braga are playing according to their preseason expectations. They will finish another season as a top-four team in Portugal with a solid chance to secure a Europa League appearance. Braga are in impressive form with five wins in the last six matches. In the previous game, they won 2-0 on the road against Estoril. There wasn't a big difference between these two teams if we look at xG stats (0.74 to 0.37), but Braga's efficiency made the difference between the two sides.
Famalicao vs Braga pick: Both teams to score
Famalicao scored at least one goal in each of the last nine matches. On the other hand, Braga scored in each of the previous even games. Also, it is important to mention that Braga and Famalicao played 3-3 in the last h2h match. We should expect goals on both sides on Friday night at Estadio Municipal de Famalicao.

Braga team news
Braga doesn't have big injury problems, either. Fran Navarro and Jonatas Noro are injured, and they should be the only ones skipping the game at Estadio Municipal de Famalicao.
