Braga vs Napoli Prediction 20.09.2023

• Competition: Champions League
• Date: 20.09.2023
• Kickoff: 20:00 UTC +1 / 21:00 CEST
• Venue: Estádio Municipal de Braga (Braga)

Portugal's Braga will kick off its campaign in this year's Champions League against Italian champion Napoli. This club has always been below the leading three in Portugal, Benfica, Sporting and Porto, but from time to time they always shine and find themselves somewhere between these teams in the table.

In the Champions League qualifiers, they overshadowed Panathinaikos in two matches and thus found themselves in the group of death with Real Madrid, Union Berlin and the aforementioned Napoli. The previous weekend they lost on the road against Farense, so they will look for an opportunity to make amends in this very difficult match.

Napoli very dominantly won the title in Serie A, the first after 33 years and now they will have the task of going through the group stage of the Champions League. Last weekend in Serie A they did not have enough success, playing "only" 2-2 on the road against Genoa. It looked very bad until the 70th minute, but the last 20 minutes can bring optimism before the premier in the strongest European football competition.

Braga vs Napoli pick: BRAGA TO COVER AH 1

Braga is a team that adapts well to the game of its rivals and plays much better at home, so Napoli should not be too much of a challenge for them. Certainly, it is expected that the Italian club will be a bit better and more active in terms of attack, but these are ideal matches for the home teams when it comes to premierships in strong competitions.

Napoli will hardly be as dominant as last season, so we expect them to win this match with a lot of effort. Braga to cover AH 1 seems like a good choice. If the Portuguese team wins or draws, we get the full amount, and if Napoli wins by 1 difference, the bet is canceled
