United take on emboldened Braga

Group H leaders Manchester United FC have never lost at home to Portuguese opponents but SC Braga's recent away run will give the visitors reason to believe at Old Trafford.

Manchester United FC will look to strengthen their position at the top of Group H when they welcome SC Braga to Old Trafford.

• With two victories, United hold a three-point lead over both CFR 1907 Cluj and Braga, who gained an impressive 2-0 win at point-less Galatasaray AŞ last time out.


Match background

• United have never lost at home to Portuguese opponents but José Peseiro's Braga are on a seven-match unbeaten sequence on their travels in Europe.

• Before beating Galatasaray, Braga drew 1-1 at Udinese Calcio in this season's play-offs. Their run also includes a 3-1 victory at Birmingham City FC in last term's UEFA Europa League group stage, Hélder Barbosa (2) and Lima earning a first victory on English soil at the seventh attempt.

• Braga's first game in the UEFA Champions League group stage in 2010/11 was a 6-0 reverse at Arsenal FC, Hugo Viana, Paulo César, Alan, Mossoró and Barbosa all featuring. That was the Portuguese club's joint-heaviest defeat in Europe, matching a 6-0 reverse at Tottenham Hotspur FC in the 1984/85 UEFA Cup first round.

• Braga have since gone five games unbeaten against English opposition, including a 1-0 aggregate success against Liverpool FC in the 2010/11 UEFA Europa League round of 16 and home and away wins over Birmingham in 2011/12.

• In last season's group stage, United drew 1-1 at SL Benfica and were then held 2-2 at Old Trafford. The Lisbon club – for whom Ruben Amorim played in both games – won the group with United third.

• United's home record against Portuguese teams is W8 D3 L0. They won the first of their three European Cups by beating Benfica 4-1 in the 1968 final at Wembley.


Team ties

• Peseiro's Sporting Clube de Portugal eliminated Middlesbrough FC and Newcastle United FC en route to the 2004/05 UEFA Cup final. Peseiro served as assistant to Sir Alex Ferguson's former No2 Carlos Queiroz at Real Madrid CF in 2003/04.

• Jonny Evans was in the Northern Ireland side that drew 1-1 in Portugal in a 2014 FIFA World Cup qualifier on 16 October. Rúben Micael and substitutes Ruben Amorim and Éder played for Portugal, as did Nani, with Beto and Custódio unused replacements.

• Nani made his senior debut under Peseiro in Sporting's UEFA Champions League qualifier against Udinese Calcio in August 2005. He appeared three times as a substitute prior to the coach's dismissal in October 2005.

• Nani played alongside Custódio as Sporting beat Amorim's CF Os Belenenses 1-0 in the 2007 Portuguese Cup final. Nani scored the only goal when Sporting won 1-0 at Braga in April 2007.

• Nani was replaced by Amorim after being ruled out of Portugal's 2010 World Cup squad with a collarbone injury.

• Custódio was in the Portugal side whose 2-1 group win eliminated Robin van Persie's Netherlands from UEFA EURO 2012.

• Anderson spent two seasons with Porto (2005-07), collecting a league championship medal in 2006/07. He played alongside Alan in both campaigns and briefly with Barbosa in 2005/06.

• While at Newcastle (2002-04), Viana featured as a substitute in two home games against United, losing 6-2 in April 2003 and 2-1 that September. Paul Scholes scored a hat-trick in the first match and the winner in the second.

• Viana also came on as Portugal beat the red-carded Wayne Rooney and Rio Ferdinand's England on penalties in the 2006 World Cup quarter-finals, despite Viana's own missed spot kick.

• Quim was in the Benfica team beaten 3-1 at Old Trafford in the 2006/07 group stage, Nemanja Vidić and Ryan Giggs both scoring. The previous season, despite conceding a goal to Scholes, he helped Benfica to a 2-1 home victory that eliminated United from the group stage.


FARE Action Week

• Matchday three of the UEFA Champions League and UEFA Europa League will contribute to the fight against all forms of discrimination in football stadiums as UEFA gives its full support to Europe's biggest anti-discrimination campaign – the FARE Action Week. Forty matches across the competitions on 23, 24 and 25 October will restate UEFA's commitment to ensuring that European football is free of racism, intolerance and xenophobia.

Sekilas tentang SC Braga

UEFA Ranking 2012/2013 : 24

Formed: 1921
Nickname: Arsenalistas (Braga share colours with Arsenal FC)

UEFA club competition honours (runners-up in brackets)
• Intertoto Cup: 2008
• UEFA Europa League: (2011)

Domestic honours (most recent triumph in brackets)
• Portuguese Cup: 1 (1966)

Sporting Clube de Braga (Portuguese pronunciation: [ˈspɔɾtĩɡ ˈklube de ˈbɾaɡɐ]) (Euronext: SCB), commonly known as Sporting de Braga or just Braga, is a Portuguese sports club, from the city of Braga.

Its football team plays at the AXA Stadium, also known as The Quarry, which was built for UEFA Euro 2004. Domestically, Braga won the 1965–1966 Portuguese Cup. In the 2000s, the club gradually became one of Portugal's most successful clubs after the Big Three and have also competed with some success in European competitions, winning the last ever UEFA Intertoto Cup in 2008 and reaching the final of the UEFA Europa League in 2011. After finishing in second place for the only time to date in the 2009–10 Primeira Liga, Sporting de Braga achieved a place in the group stage of the UEFA Champions League for the first time in its history by eliminating Celtic FC and Sevilla FC.

Sporting de Braga also qualified for the group stage of the UEFA Champions League in 2012 by eliminating Udinese. Sporting de Braga is currently sponsored by Italian sportswear company Macron.

History
• Founded on 19 January 1921 by a group of young men and students, Braga's first chairman was João Gomes, with the new club adopting the city's coat of arms, featuring a Virgin and Child; many fans believe that the Virgin Mary brings the club luck.

• After more than two decades in the lower divisions, Braga finally played a first season in Portugal's highest league in 1947/48 having spent the previous 12 seasons in the second tier. In 1950 they were able to move from the state-owned Quinta Mitra ground to their own Estádio 1º de Maio, their home until 30 December 2003.

• Braga won their only major honour to date in 1966, a goal from Argentinian striker Miguel Ángel Perrichon giving them a 1-0 Portuguese Cup final win against Setubal-based Vitória FC; that success allowed Manuel Palmeira's side to represent Braga in Europe for the first time, reaching the second round of the 1966/67 UEFA Cup Winners' Cup.

• A steady presence in the top division since 1975, Braga were losing cup finalists in 1976/77 and 1981/82, and made occasional forays into Europe. However, their stock rose considerably following their move to the Estádio Municipal in 2003, with three successive fourth-placed Liga finishes from 2004/05 to 2006/07, and the Arsenalistas were one of the winners of the 2008 UEFA Intertoto Cup.

• Under Domingos Paciência in 2009/10, Braga came second in the league – their best ever finish – handing them a chance in the UEFA Champions League third qualifying round. They progressed to the group stage, coming third, but then embarked on a superb UEFA Europa League run which was only ended in the final by FC Porto.

Club records
Most appearances: José Nuno Azevedo 275 (league only)

Info mengenai Sporting Braga agak kurang yah, review last match saja susah didapat, hanya sedikit info mereka menang 3 - 0 atas Leixões. Diliga Portugal mereka sementara ada diposisi ke tiga, dengan hasil 3 kali menang, dua kali imbang dan sekali kalah dengan total 6 pertandingan. 15 kali mencetak, 10 kali kebobolan. Top scorer mereka Éder (pemain lokal: Portugal) dengan 4 gol.

Di UCL sendiri, kalah 0 - 2 dari CFR Cluj, serta Menang 0 - 2 dari Galatasaray.

Yang unik dari Sporting Braga adalah stadium Estádio AXA yang hanya berkapasitas 30.286 orang (jauh dari Old Traford)

Pernah menang lawan Pool 1 - 0 (penalty) 11 maret 2011
