SC Braga vs Železničar Pančevo
📖 The Preview
Braga won the first leg 1-0, so they come into this at home needing to just hold their nerve, while Železničar have to come out and attack — which suits the Portuguese side perfectly. Braga's form is seriously solid, five wins in their last six, and playing at home in a Conference League tie where a draw sees them through gives them a real comfort blanket. Železničar's recent record is patchy enough that trusting them to pull off an away comeback looks risky. Expect Braga to control this, nick two, and keep a clean sheet.
