Braga vs Benfica Prediction: Derby match for the end of 2022

The match between Braga and Benfica is without a doubt the derby match of this round. Benfica is doing very well in the Portuguese league but has also played very good games in the cups. The visiting team is currently eight points ahead of their historical rivals Porto. We are talking about a team that is dominating the championship and has won 12 matches, except only once. Benfica has the best attack in the tournament and the best defense. Braga is not one of the easiest opponents and, moreover, they come to this match with a good form and in fact, in the recent period they have won 4 matches losing only once, considering each competition. Braga is fighting for Champions League qualification and to get a point against Benfica would certainly be a great victory in terms of ranking, prestige and morale

Braga is playing well. They are in 4th place with 28 points from 13 matches, with 9 wins, a draw and 3 defeats. They scored 29 and conceded 12 goals They are a solid team, but they often struggle against Benfica, Sporting, or Porto. In the last match, they lost 5-0 against Sporting in the Cup game and were easily over this line.

Benfica is the best team in the league. I think they can win with many goals difference almost against anyone in the league. In the last 5 games in the league, they won all 5 and have scored 18 goals and conceded 4. Benfica is 1st on the table with 12 wins and a draw.

One thing is for sure when these teams are playing against each other, that we will see attractive football with many goals. Both teams are in good shape and will want to end the year with a win and it is very good reason to bet on goals in this match, as well as theirs h2h stats.
