UEFA Champions League | Braga VS Union Berlin; Thursday, 30 November at 04:00 GMT +8

Braga, who won their previous game, will hope for a similar result in their upcoming match against Arouca. In that match, Braga had 61% possession and 17 attempts at goal, with Álvaro Djaló scoring the only goal. However, they have not shown defensive steel in recent times, failing to prevent opponents from scoring in five of their previous six clashes. The team will need to determine if this trend will persist in the upcoming game.

Union Berlin won a Bundesliga 1 match against Augsburg, with 62% possession and 15 attempts on goal. Kevin Volland scored for Union Berlin, while Augsburg had 11 attempts and 2 on target. However, Union Berlin’s strike force has struggled in the past six matches, contributing to an unsatisfactory return of only one goal. The collective goal tally of their opponents also equals 12.

Artur Jorge has a fully fit squad for Wednesday’s UCL match in Portugal, with Congolese forward Simon Banza leading the Braguistas’ attack and winger Bruma providing support.

New manager Nenad Bjelica faces challenges with three first-team regulars, Leonardo Bonucci, Josip Juranovic, and Sheraldo Becker, and late fitness tests for Alexander Schwolow, Danilho Doekhi, and Brenden Aaronson at Estádio Nacional.

Predicted lineups:
