Lazio to Take First Place in Style

Braga have left themselves with work to do after claiming just seven points from a possible 21. They are 27th, two points away from the play-offs. Carlos Carvalhal’s boys have won two, lost four, and drawn one.

In contrast, Lazio have been the best team in the Europa League this season. Biancocelesti have won six and drawn one of seven, scoring 17 goals and conceding four. They are three points clear at the summit with a +13 goal difference, so Lazio should go through to the last 16 as league-phase winners.

The Serie A side won their opening four Europa League matches before drawing at home with Ludogorets Razgrad. They have bounced back with 3-1 wins against Ajax and Real Sociedad.

Braga have had a long Europa League campaign, with Thursday’s fixture being the Portuguese side’s 14th European match of their season. They did well to qualify but have found the league phase tough going, picking up just one win.

The Braga vs Lazio Head-to-Head Form Guide

Braga are in patchy form, winning four and losing three of their last seven in all competitions. Last weekend, they beat Boavista 3-0 at home in the Primeira Liga.

Lazio suffered a disappointing 2-1 home league reverse to Fiorentina last Sunday. That was just their second home loss of the season. Away from home, the Rome giants have won nine of the previous 12.

Braga vs Lazio Betting Tips & Predictions

Braga need the points, but we can see Lazio securing top spot in style. The Italians have kept three clean sheets in Europe, and the away win to nil is priced at 9.50.
