After a goalless draw in Portugal less than a week ago, Servette and Braga meet again this week for the second leg of their Europa League third qualifying round tie.
Servette are competing in the Europa League for the second consecutive season. The 2023-24 campaign saw the Super League side finished third in the group stage after being knocked out in the third qualifying round of the Champions League and went on to reach the last 16 of the Conference League.
Despite finishing outside the top three in the Portuguese top flight Braga had plenty to celebrate last season. The Arsenalists won the League Cup and finished third in their Champions League group before being eliminated in the play-offs for the Europa League.
Servette FC vs. Braga betting tips: Over 2.5 goals
After being praised for keeping a clean sheet in the first leg, Servette were humiliated in the Super League last weekend, conceding six goals - five of them in the second half - and failing to respond. The hosts are now without a clean sheet in each of their last seven home games and I think this week will see them extend that run.
Braga have conceded just once in their last four games, and only one of those encounters produced more than two goals. However, the Primeira Liga side's recent away form has been entertaining, with all but one of their last five games ending with three or more goals scored.
- Best Tip: Over 2.5 goals

Servette FC team news
Victory Beniangba will once again be unavailable to Servette boss Thomas Häberli this week due to injury.
Beniangba has missed the last three games due to a muscle injury and the forward is not expected to return to action before the end of September.
The Centre-back is the hosts' only injury concern for Thursday's Europa League third qualifying round second leg tie though.
