Sporting Braga failed in the fight for 3rd place and dropped 3 points in the last round, at Rio Ave. Their rival FC Porto won, and moved 3 points ahead. A defeat that was not in Carlos Carvalhal's plans, even given the good performance that the team had shown recently. It is true that they were coming from a defeat at Estádio da Luz, which meant they were eliminated from the Portuguese Cup, but even so, it was a narrow defeat, and one that did not suggest a new setback in the following game. Now, in this 25th round, it is time for the Guerreiros do Minho to be able to get close to FC Porto again, but to do so they need to win this duel with the dragons.

Confirmed Lineup: Lukáš Horníček, Paulo Oliveira, Robson Bambu, Francisco Rodrigues, Victor Gómez Perea, João Moutinho, Gorby Jean Baptiste, Gabriel Martínez Aguilera, Ricardo Horta, Amine El Ouazzani, Ismaël Gharbi.
Coach: R. Gomes Duarte.

In the penultimate match, they tied in a home match against Vitória SC, by (1‑1). In the last match, they won in an away match against Arouca, by (0‑2).

In 24 matches for this competition, they have conceded the first goal 8 times and have never been able to turn the score around.

The Porto team come from a good triumph at Arouca. A (0-2) victory that showed an FC Porto, still far from what the fans expect, but that ended up being a fair winner. We continue to see an FC Porto with a lot of defensive care, and a team that have little ball possession. It is true that they controlled the game, without the ball, and that the team bet on playing in transitions, after taking the lead. It's something atypical, especially for a team of their size, and a candidate for the title. Now, in this 25th round, at Sporting Braga's stadium, Martín Anselmi's FC Porto have a real test, especially because in the most demanding clashes this season, the dragons were not up to the task.

Confirmed Lineup: Diogo Costa, Nehuén Pérez, O. Ataide da Silva, João Mário, Francisco Moura, Martim Moreira Moutinho Fernandes, Ivan Marcano, André Franco, Alan Varela, Samuel Omorodion Aghehowa, Gonçalo Borges.
Coach: M. Anselmi.
