Sporting Braga can move a step closer to a Europa League place with victory over Guimaraes this evening.
Braga are currently fourth in Portugal’s Liga Sagres, the second of three qualifying spots for the Europa League, but will go third with a victory tonight and, more importantly, they would open up a nine point gap between themselves and those sides outside of the qualifying places with just four games to go.
Visitors Guimaraes, meanwhile, are leading that chasing pack and they can move into the final qualifying spot, fifth place, with either a victory or a draw this evening.
While Sporting Braga head ran out 2-1 winners at Beira Mar in their most recent league outing, Guimaraes boosted their qualification chances with a 1-1 draw at home to Sporting Lisbon.
