Braga vs. Galatasaray: Preview and TV schedule
Galatasaray can secure qualification for the first time in a decade with a good result away at Braga.
Laurence Griffiths
The Turkish side need only to equal or better CFR Cluj’s result at Manchester United to progress to the next stage, and will have an excellent change of doing so after they boosted their confidence with an away win at Cluj, hugely important for a team that has had such an awful away record in Europe.
Braga, despite already being knocked out, will still want to put in a decent showing and will provide dangerous opposition, but with Cluj in action against Manchester United, Galatasaray will know that equalling their result, bar a shock win for the Romanians, should be a simple task.
