Braga vs Real Madrid - Champions League: TV channel, team news, lineups & prediction
- Real Madrid take on Braga for the very first time in competitive action
- Madrid are two from two in Group C
- Braga secured important win at Union Berlin on Matchday 2
Real Madrid continue their Champions League campaign on Tuesday night as they travel across the Iberian Peninsula to take on Braga.
Madrid have started with two wins from two amid their quest to reclaim their European crown. After stealing three points at home to Union Berlin on Matchday 1, the La Liga giants edged an entertaining bout in Naples last time out.
Their early success leaves them in a very strong position in Group C, while Braga secured an imperative victory in Berlin on Matchday 2 to offer them hope of potentially making the round of 16. However, the in-form Portuguese side will likely have to take points of Madrid if they are to advance at Napoli's expense.

Braga vs Real Madrid score prediction
The visitors had a little hiccup at the weekend by drawing in Seville, while Braga head into Tuesday's game well-rested having played on Thursday. The hosts have also enjoyed a five-game win streak, so they'll be confident of upsetting the odds.
A victory for Madrid and they'll all but secure their place in the next phase, and while they're undoubtedly the superior side, it wouldn't be too much of a surprise to see them drop points away from home. Braga could do with taking points off the Spanish side, and they might do enough to earn a point at home on Tuesday.
Prediction: Braga 1-1 Real Madrid
