What has been Braga and Benfica's form ahead of this match?
Braga makes it to this game having won four out of their last six. A couple of back-to-back losses killed their chances of winning the title, and now, the team coached by Abel Ferreira will seemingly have to settle to fight for the third place with Sporting. Braga has kept a clean sheet in their two most recent games, a 3-0 win against Tondela and a 2-0 victory in their trip to face Feirense.
Benfica enters this match on a five-game winning streak. The Eagles have not dropped points since their 2-2 draw against Belenenses almost six weeks ago. Since then, Bruno Lage's men have scored 19 goals, while only allowing 3. That surge has kept them in contention to win the title, and following Porto's draw, there could be a new leader on Monday.
What is the current position of Braga and Benfica in the Primeira Liga?
Sporting Braga enters this game in fourth place of the Portuguese top flight. Os Arcebispos have win 20 of their previous 30 games, with four games and six losses completing their tally. Dyego Sousa is the team's top scorer this season, having found the back of the net 14 times.
Benfica makes it to the Municipal de Braga Stadium in second place. The Eagles have fought back to battle Porto for the league title, with only one point separating the bitter rivals before Benfica storms the pitch. The red and white side has scored 87 goals this season, that's 23 more than their closest rival (Porto).
