TSC Team News
TSC made a historic success last season, finishing the championship in second place, behind Red Star. This position secured them a place in the third round of the “League path” of the Champions League, in which their opponent is today’s rival, Braga.
TSC played three matches in the domestic championship, and they achieved good results. After the first round and a draw with Partizan, there were victories against Radnicki in Nis 3:0 and last weekend against Radnicki 1923 in Backa Topola 1:0 with Jovanovic’s goal in the end of the match.
However, TSC recorded a defeat in the most important game in the season so far, which is of course the first match against Braga. The Portuguese team won 3:0, with a much better quality game. The players of the Serbian representative did not do well in the first European match of the season, and two of the three goals of the home team were direct mistakes by the TSC defenders.
Unfortunately, because of everything shown in the first game, the team from Backa Topola has an “impossible mission” in the second leg and the chances of qualifying for the next round are theoretical.

Braga Team News
Braga finished the previous season in third place, behind Benfica and Porto, and thus qualified for the Champions League.
In the preparatory period, Braga beat Torreense 4:0, Boavista 2:0, Cardiff 1:0, Bristol Rovers 3:2, and Nice 2:0, while the only draw was against Italian Roma (1:1). Considering the quality of Braga’s rivals in these duels, it is clear that the Portuguese team is playing great, which they confirmed in the first duel with TSC. The home team was the better rival throughout the match, and after 20 minutes, they had an advantage of 2:0. They scored the third goal at the end of the game after a massive mistake by the visitors’ defender, Antonic.
However, one gets the impression that in the first round of the national championship, Braga was thinking about the rematch with TSC since after a convincing game against Familicao in the first half and a 1:0 advantage, they unexpectedly lost at the opening of the season with two goals in the rest of the match.

TSC vs Braga Prediction
TSC will have to go ultra-offensive from the first minute to score early goal in hopes of pulling off a miracle in the second leg in Backa Topola.
However, Braga’s experience in playing this kind of games is vast, and considering the big difference in quality, we expect the guests to get another victory before the final round of Champions League qualifications.
