Match Preview

Rio Ave were leading at half-time against a red-hot Academico Viseu FC side last time out but conceded twice in the final 21 minutes in a 2-1 away defeat. Sunday's hosts are looking to shake off back-to-back Liga Portugal defeats when they face Sporting Braga.

Sporting Braga were unable to break the deadlock against AGF in the Conference League in midweek, settling for a point and a clean sheet in Denmark. Franclim Carvalho's side hammered a 10-man Famalicao outfit 3-0 in their most recent league fixture.
