Braga could have finished in third place in the previous season if it wasn't for their collapse in the crucial stages. For the second consecutive time, they secured a fourth-place finish with 66 points accumulated.
Following that finish, Os Arcebispos were able to secure a ticket in the UEFA Europa League qualifiers. It has been a promising start as they saw off the threat of Levski Sofia in the second qualifying round with a 1-0 aggregate score.
This was enough to see them progress to the third qualifying round, where they faced CFR Cluj. In the first leg, they secured a 2-1 away victory and are set to protect their one-goal lead in the return leg five days from now.

Tondela: Form and Statistics
Tondela avoided the promotion playoffs by concluding the 2024-25 Segunda Liga as the table-toppers. They accumulated 64 points and were one point ahead of second-placed Alverca. This also saw them clinch the Segunda Liga title for the second time.
Back in the Primeira Liga after being relegated in the 2021-22 season, Tondela's main objective is simple this year, and that's to avoid immediate relegation to the second division.
The Gold and Greens have navigated four preseason games in preparation for the current time. It was an impressive display from them as they avoided defeat in all outings, recording three wins and one draw. Their last friendly match was against Nacional da Madeira, winning 2-1 on the road.

Braga vs Tondela match prediction 10 August 2025
Braga has dominated this fixture in recent years. It comes as no surprise they are favorites to secure their first league win, having emerged victorious in 13 of their last 16 meetings. Considering that they have already kickstarted the 2025-26 season with competitive matches in the UEFA Europa League qualifiers, I don't doubt their victory.
Tondela, on the other hand, was impressive on the road in the 2024-25 LigaPro season. This is a team that lost once in 17 outings, and the way I see it, they are worth a goal. They can make life difficult for the home team. However, I'm just going to side with Braga in this one for a comfortable win.
