Braga vs Shakhtar Donetsk predictions and tonight’s football betting tips for the Europa League quarter final first leg in Portugal.
This looks one of the closest Europa League quarter final matches on paper and this first leg will go a long way to determining who will line-up in the semi-finals. Our football tipster has got three betting tips for the match.
Braga vs Shakhtar Donetsk Predictions
Braga had the worst possible preparation for this match, losing 5-1 against Benfica on Friday night but that was away from home where they are nowhere near as good as they are at home. Braga’s home form reads no loss in 13 games, winning 10 of those. They’ve won four and drawn one of their five home Europa League games this season, including a convincing 4-1 home win against Fenerbache in the last round.
Shakhtar dropped down from the Champions League where they were in a group with Real Madrid and PSG, they won 8-1 at the weekend and have won both their away legs in the Europa League knock-out rounds so far this season, including a remarkable 3-0 win at Schalke.
Braga will know they need to win tonight to have any chance of qualifying for the semi-finals because Shakhtar are very good at home and for my first Braga vs Shakhtar Donetsk betting tip tonight I’m siding with the home team to win. The best odds for Braga to beat Shakhtar are 8/5 at Coral.

My next Braga vs Shakhtar Donetsk prediction is for both teams to score. As mentioned, Braga are very good at home but Shakhtar will want an away goal and it’s something they have managed in both of their previous away matches in this competition. The best odds for BTTS in Braga v Shakhtar tonight are 22/23 with 888Sport.

Finally I’m moving towards an anytime goalscorer tip for my last Braga vs Shakhtar Donetsk prediction and it’s the Shakhtar players I’m interested in. Former Arsenal man Eduardo scored in both of their previous round legs for Shakhtar so I’m betting on him to get a goal tonight. The best odds for Eduardo to score anytime are 10/3 with Stan James.
