Copenhagen open their Conference League League Phase campaign at Parken against a Braga side that sits miles above them in the World Clubs Ranking, yet the bookmakers still lean towards the Danes at home. That gap between ranking and market price is the first thing worth noting here: Copenhagen’s odds around 2.45-2.54 make them the nominal favourite over a club ranked 76th in the world compared to their own 149th spot. Home advantage and recent attacking output appear to be doing the heavy lifting for Bo Svensson’s side, while Carlos Vicens still searches for consistency with Braga, who have won just once in their last four matches overall.
Watch Andreas Cornelius up top for Copenhagen. He has scored once in only two recent appearances and offers more physical presence than Dadason or Elyounoussi off the bench. For Braga, Jonas Wind is the one shown to find the net in this sample, grabbing a goal in three outings despite limited touches, a sign he thrives on instinct rather than volume.
Hot stat: across their last five matches combined, Copenhagen have scored five goals and fired 52 shots compared to Braga’s two goals from 43 shots, a gap that lines up neatly with the host’s superior recent scoring form.

Copenhagen vs Braga prediction
We predict Copenhagen to edge this one at home. Their last two results went against them, losses to Midtjylland and Hamburger SV, but both came against sides in stronger form, and before that run Copenhagen won three straight by a combined 6-2. Braga arrive with a worse recent record, just one win in four this month and a 25% winrate over that stretch, and their only goal involvement from a recognisable scorer in the sample belongs to Jonas Wind.
Copenhagen have committed 37 fouls and picked up five yellow cards across their last five matches versus Braga’s 33 fouls and four cards, a fairly even disciplinary picture that shouldn’t tip the balance either way. Passing accuracy sits close as well, around 85% for Copenhagen against roughly 84% for Braga, but Copenhagen’s extra five corners (19 to 14) over the same stretch points to a side generating more sustained pressure in the final third, which should translate into set-piece chances at Parken.

Team Analysis
Copenhagen’s last outing ended 1-2 against Midtjylland, a result that snapped a run of three consecutive wins (over Brøndby, Skovshoved and Horsens by an aggregate 6-0). The dip coincided with facing a tougher opponent, Midtjylland arrived in strong form themselves, and the same pattern repeated in the match before that, a 0-2 loss to Hamburger SV. Copenhagen still managed to score in four of their last five games and their underlying shot numbers (52 across five matches) suggest the attack is not the issue, finishing against quality defences is.
Braga’s most recent match was a 1-3 defeat to Sporting CP, a side they simply could not live with. Before that they drew 0-0 with Santa Clara and beat Estoril 1-0, results that paint a side capable of grinding out results against weaker opposition but struggling to score goals in bunches, just two in their last five matches. That scoring drought is the clearest concern heading into Copenhagen away from home.

Pre-game odds and win probability: Copenhagen the favourite
- Moneyline Copenhagen 2.38 | Braga 2.80
- Draw 3.12
The market gives Copenhagen roughly a 38% implied chance of victory against Braga’s 32%, with the draw sitting around 29%. Given the home side’s sharper scoring numbers over the last five games and Braga’s modest 25% winrate this month, those prices look fair rather than generous, we’d lean towards the home win holding value over backing the draw or an upset.
Possible Starting Lineups
Copenhagen possible starting eleven
- GK: Rúnar Alex Rúnarsson
- DF: Akos Markgraf, Asger Sørensen, Felix Beijmo
- MF: Junnosuke Suzuki, William Clem, Alex Král, Marcos López, Thomas Delaney
- FW: Mohamed Elyounoussi, Viktor Dadason
Svensson’s expected 3-4-1-2 leans on Markgraf, Sørensen and Beijmo as a settled back three, each having featured in all three recent matches sampled. Suzuki and López provide the width as wing-backs, with Clem and Král controlling the middle. Delaney slots in just behind the front two, and Elyounoussi’s combination with Dadason up top gives Copenhagen two players who already have a goal each in this sample, Cornelius remains the main option off the bench.
Braga possible starting eleven
- GK: Bernardo Caltabiano Parise Fontes
- DF: Victor Gómez, Adrian Bajrami, Sergio Barcia, Gabriel Silva
- MF: João Moutinho, Vitor Carvalho, Jean-Baptiste Gorby, Gabriel Martínez Aguilera, Ricardo Horta
- FW: Jonas Wind
Vicens’ 4-2-3-1 looks built around Moutinho and Carvalho screening the back four, both have logged the highest pass totals in the squad over the last three matches. Horta, Gorby and Gabriel Martínez support Wind from the three attacking-midfield slots, with Wind the only player in the squad sample to actually find the net, making him the player to watch if Braga are to cause an upset at Parken.

TipsGG Match Prediction
Copenhagen should get back to winning ways here. Their recent dip came against two sides playing above their current level, and the underlying shot and corner numbers from the last five matches still favour the home side clearly. Braga’s scoring problems, just two goals in five games, make them hard to trust on the road against a team that has found the net in four of its last five outings. We back Copenhagen on the Draw No Bet line as the smarter way to play this, with Under 2.5 goals and BTTS No as our secondary picks given both sides’ tendency towards tighter, lower-scoring affairs this autumn.
