Match Facts
Sporting Braga and FK Qarabağ will meet for the first time in European competition, with Braga set to face an Azerbaijani opponent for the very first time.
FK Qarabağ’s only previous meetings with Portuguese opposition came when facing Sporting CP in the 2018/19 UEFA Europa League Group Stage, where Qarabağ lost 0-2 away and 1-6 at home, the latter of which was the Azerbaijani club’s biggest ever home defeat in European competition.
Sporting Braga are winless in their last four home games in major European competition (D1 L3), starting with a 0-4 loss to Fiorentina in the play-off round of last season’s UEFA Europa Conference League; Braga have never gone five home games without victory in major European competition.
Only LASK (5) conceded more goals in the final 10 minutes of games in the 2023/24 UEFA Europa League group stage than FK Qarabağ (4), whilst only Internazionale (88%) and PSV (88%) scored a higher proportion of their total goals in the 2023/24 UEFA Champions League group stage in the second half of games than Sporting Braga (83% - 5/6).
Only three players have created more chances in the UEFA Europa League this season than FK Qarabağ’s Abdellah Zoubir; seven of the 14 chances he has created have come following a carry of 5+ metres, with only Bayer Leverkusen’s Nathan Tella (8) and Brighton’s Kaoru Mitoma (8) creating more chances from such situations.
