Braga vs Panathinaikos Match Preview
Braga and Panathinaikos will meet in the first leg of the UEFA Champions League playoff on Wednesday, August 23, 2023. The match will be played at the Estádio Municipal de Braga in Braga, Portugal.
Braga is the favorite for the match. They have been in fine form in recent weeks, winning their last three matches in all competitions. They are also unbeaten at home in the Champions League this season, winning two and drawing one of their three games.
Panathinaikos are not the favourites, but they will be confident after their performance against Marseille in the third qualifying round. They drew the first leg 1-1 in Athens and then won on penalties 5-4.

Braga vs Panathinaikos Prediction
Braga 2-1 Panathinaikos
Panathinaikos have a good counter-attacking threat, led by Giorgos Giakoumakis. They are also good at set pieces and have scored 4 goals from set pieces in their last 5 games.
I think the match will be close, but I’m leaning a bit towards a victory for Braga. I think their attack is more powerful than Panathinaikos and I hope they score more goals.
