Match Facts

  • This will be Braga’s first ever meeting with Lazio – they’ve lost each of their last three home games against Italian sides, having been unbeaten in their first three such games beforehand in Europe (W2 D1).

  • Lazio have lost five of their seven away games against Portuguese sides in all competitions (W2), with this their first visit since a 2-1 loss to FC Porto in February 2022.

  • Sporting Braga have lost both of their last two UEFA Europa League games, but haven’t lost three in a row in the competition since September 2021. Indeed, not since 1978-79 have they suffered three straight UEFA Cup/Europa League defeats within a single campaign.

  • Lazio have won their last three away UEFA Europa League matches – they have never previously won four in a row away from home in major European competition.

  • Lazio have won six of their seven UEFA Europa League games this season (D1); only in the 1997-98 UEFA Cup (7), 1999-00 UEFA Champions League (8), and 2017-18 Europa League (7) have the Italian club won more games in a single major European campaign.
