Braga vs Chaves Prediction & Betting Tips (31 January)

Chaves have been struggling on their top-flight travels for a sustained period of time, suffering 15 defeats in 21 trips, and their most recent eight away matches have yielded a grand total of just two points. Meanwhile, title-chasing Braga had secured 15 victories in 21 attempts on home soil in the Liga Portugal.

Over the course of their last 12 Liga Portugal matches, Braga have been involved in nine contests containing under 3.5 goals, including each of the most recent four. It has been a similar story as far as Chaves are concerned, with 18 of their previous 19 games at this level delivering no more than three goals, so expect something similar in this encounter.

At least one of the two goalkeepers has emerged with a clean sheet from 15 of the previous 18 league games involving Chaves, and both of their meetings with Braga last season finished goalless. Speaking of the hosts, eight of their most recent 12 home matches have followed the same pattern, so anyone expecting a thriller is likely to be disappointed by this contest.
