Command Analysis

Braga

Braga have become another club, who underestimated the Tiraspol side in the current European campaign. Portuguese team had a clear advantage in the first leg, but conceded two goals from counter-attacks and decreased their chances for a round of 16 spot (0:2). Carlos Carvaljal's team has recovered quickly after that defeat and recorded an away victory over Tondela (1:0) in the domestic league, keeping a 4th spot in Primeira Liga.

FC Sheriff

Sheriff did everything they could in the home game and punished Portuguese team for defensive mistakes, Tiraspol side put up an efficient offensive performance. Yuriy Vernydub's men did a remarkable job earning a Europa League play-off spot, but they don't want to stop on that. The Yellow-Blacks are also in a great form domestically, they left for a winter break at the top spot, with two games in hand and two points clear of the nearest competitor.

Braga underestimated their opponent in the first leg, even a lack of match practice didn't prevent Sheriff from winning. At home match, Os Arsenalistas will probably be more careful on defense, because The Yellow-Blacks are a serious threat to any opponent in the current season.

Portuguese team needs to score at all cost, so visitors will have the space for their counter-attacks. Tiraspol side is very disciplined on defense. In our opinion, the Yellow-Blacks will put up a successful performance in the reverse leg, so we offer to place a bet on a plus handicap for the away side.
