This could be an interesting match as Sporting Braga have their presumed home advantage while Famalicão are ahead 11 points in the Primeira Liga table.
It's no vacation for neither Sporting Braga nor Famalicão as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
