Braga picked up a huge 2-1 victory in the first leg of this meeting. It always felt like the fourth placed Portuguese Primeira Liga side would have a slight advantage over the competitive, but less experienced Swiss Super League side Sion. They enjoyed ball possession dominance and enter the second leg at home as huge favourites to progress in this competition.
Reason for Betting Tips
The first leg was a chastising experience for Sion, who performed so impressively to advance from a group that had included Liverpool and Bordeaux. The trip to Portugal on Wednesday isn't likely to go any better for a club that might have to face the prospect of even less ball possession in this second match-up. Braga were held to an entertaining 3-3 draw by Vitoria Guimaraes, which perhaps just about keeps alive the prospect that they might not finish in the top four this season. Still, they'll have too much for Sion in this match-up and the oddsmakers have been very generous with 4/6 odds on the Braga win.
