Moreirense picked up their first league win of the season last time out by recording a 2-1 victory over Chaves.
The win means that the home team has now won just two of their previous seven games in the Portuguese top flight dating back to their last stint in the top flight.
Moreirense really has struggled for results on home soil of late in the Primeira Liga, winning just two of their last eight home matches in the Portuguese top-flight.
Their recent home games in the league have been high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in their previous three matches on home soil.
Although Sporting Braga has made a slightly mixed start to the Primeira Liga campaign, they are unbeaten in their previous five games in all competitions.
A 1-1 home draw against Sporting CP last time out also ended a four-game winning run in the Portuguese top flight.
Braga have been relatively difficult to beat of late in the Primeira Liga, as they have lost just one of their last six league matches.
Their recent league outings have also been relatively high-scoring, with over 2.5 goals scored in three of their previous four Primeira Liga matches.
Sporting Braga has a relatively strong recent away record in the Portuguese top-flight, winning four of their previous six league games on their travels.
Their recent away games have been low-scoring, though, with under 2.5 goals scored in three of their last four outings.
Forebet predicts that Sporting Braga will continue their recent stellar run of form by recording a victory in a high-scoring encounter.
