Match Facts
This is the first ever competitive meeting between Braga and Napoli – the Portuguese side have lost each of their last four games against Italian sides in all competitions, most recently twice against Fiorentina in last season's UEFA Europa Conference League.
Napoli won their last two matches against Portuguese opponents, beating Benfica home and away in the group stages of the 2016-17 UEFA Champions League. They've never won three consecutive meetings with Portuguese sides before.
Sporting Braga are making their third appearance in the UEFA Champions League, going out in the group stages in both 2010-11 and 2012-13.
None of Sporting Braga's 12 UEFA Champions League games have been drawn (W4 L8) – it's the most games any team has played in the competition without any finishing level.
This will be Napoli's eighth appearance in the UEFA Champions League. They reached the quarter-final last season, the furthest they've gone in the competition.
Braga lost all three of their home games in their previous UEFA Champions League appearance in 2012-13, losing to CFR Cluj, Manchester United and Galatasaray in the group stage. Overall, they’ve lost six of their last seven games in the competition (W1), with the one exception being an away win at Galatasaray in October 2012.
Napoli boss Rudi Garcia has only won two of his last 15 games in the group stage of the UEFA Champions League (D6 L7), while he’s never managed to win consecutive group stage games across the 28 he’s taken charge of between Lille, Roma and Lyon.
Braga have lost two of their last three home games in major European competition (W1), losing to Union Saint-Gilloise and Fiorentina last season. This is as many defeats as they had suffered in their previous 17 such matches beforehand (W11 D4).
Napoli striker Victor Osimhen has scored in each of his last three appearances in the UEFA Champions League, netting four goals in the process. Indeed, he could become the first ever Napoli player to score in four consecutive outings in the competition.
Only Jack Grealish (26) generated more chances following a carry than Napoli’s Khvicha Kvaratskhelia in the UEFA Champions League last season (23 – 17 shots, six chances created).
