Panathinaikos – Braga preview: Team news, latest form, and potential lineups
Read all the news and updates on this match right here, including the most likely Panathinaikos vs Braga lineups:
Panathinaikos
Panathinaikos have only started their domestics campaign with a win over Volos but they have already been involved in a few of Champions League matches in theses qualifiers and things have been tough for them. After all, Panathinaikos barely reached this round, going through against Marseille only after a penalty shootout. Now the team is looking to overcome a one goal deficit from Portugal to reach the group stages.
Panathinaikos predicted lineup:
Brignoli – Vagiannidis, Magnusson, Jedvaj, Juankar – Perez, Vilhena – Verbic, Mancini, Djuricic – Ioannidis
Braga
Braga are hoping to reach the group stages of the Champions League for the first time since the 2012-13 campaign and they are very close to doing so since they only need to avoid a loss in Greece to achieve this. After having been out of the competition for more than a decade, this is a big moment for Braga. Coach Artur Jorge will likely have to manage without Al-Musrati, who came off injured in the first leg.
Braga predicted lineup:
Matheus – Gomez, Niakite, Fonte, Marin – A. Horta, Carvalho – Bruma, R. Horta, Djalo – Ruiz
Starting lineups:
Teams often release their lineups one hour ahead of the kickoff
Panathinaikos
Braga
Player to watch: Ricardo Horta
Ricardo Horta has made a strong impact at Sporting Braga after managing to find the back of the net in two of his last three appearances. The striker comes on the back of two impressive campaigns with the Portuguese team in which he was able to get 19 and 14 goals respectively.
On top of that, Horta helped his team get the win over Panathinaikos in the first leg by assisting for both of Braga's goals, so he is our player to watch in this match too.
