Braga don't oscillate in the 90 minutes like they did last year, but there are big differences in their away and home games. They still lose away games, and keep up with Europe thanks to home games where they win. THey have to keep the series positive against the last team of the league. Last summer, they invested a lot so the expectations are higher than what they showed. They scored 10 in four games at home, and conceded only two goals. Three opponents were stronger than Gil, one as good as Gil, and if Benfica couldn't stand up to them, Gil Vicente won't. In games like these, the trap is usually in underestimating the opponent, but Conceição isn't a coach who'll allow something like that. Gil aren't playing well, and because of a weak roster, they don't have room for improvement. The atmosphere isn't good, the club president threatened the players, mentioned the winter transfer window, and also suspended the captain Peixoto. They came back defeated from the last two away games, against the first-league teams where the defense conceded five goals, and confirmed their status of being the worst in the league. Even the last three seasons, since they came back to Primeira, they didn't come back from Braga with under 3 goals conceded, and considering Braga's home games, Barcelosa club is expected to continue its agony. Most of the game will be played on their half of the field, and their weak defense won't be able to stop the home team's offenses, so the home team should get a win with more than one goal difference.
