Arouca vs Brann Predictions and Free Tips from our expert tipsters when the teams go head-to-head in the Europa Conference League Qualification on Thursday, 10 August 2023.
Arouca had a decent run in the last Liga Portugal season. The team claimed fifth position at the end of the season and have advanced it to the Europa Conference League qualification semi-finals.
Going on, they are having a very strong form at the moment, following an eight match unbeaten streak. It is worth noting that they won six of those eight matches.
Arouca will face Norwegian side Brann in their semi-final match-up. Brann follows an unimpressive form of late, recording four defeats in the last six matches.
This will be marked as the first head to head meetings between these two teams.
The home form of Arouca also looks stunning as the team lost just once in the past 13 matches across all competitions. They are on a seven-match unbeaten streak too.
Meanwhile, Brann’s away recordings looks dreadful as the team lost four of the last six. Do also note that they faced outfits from their domestic league in those matches.
Arouca’s unbeaten form at home despite of facing outfits from different competitions, forces us to back them here to seal a win against this Brann side.
Three of the last five home matches of Arouca were low-scoring. Also Arouca’s per game scoring rate in the recent home matches is two. Since Brann’s recent high-scoring away recordings were the matches they lost, we don’t expect this match to have goals over 2.5 ft.
Arouca bagged three clean sheets from the last five home outings. On the other side, the away form and offensive performance of Brann looks unimpressive. Thus, we don’t expect this match to have goals from both ends.
Arouca’s current form with good exposure to the qualifications matches inclines us to back them here. We like to place Arouca to win as the main betting tip for this match.
For the second tip, we like to place the under 2.5 goals option considering the goal numbers of both at respective patches.
