Real Madrid faces Braga of Portugal this Tuesday on the third day of the group stage of the Champions League. The white team arrives with its homework done after the victory at the Diego Armando Maradona Stadium in Naples (2-3), which boosts it to first place in Group C with 6 points.

The merengue team has qualified for the Champions League round of 16 in its last 27 appearances. And he knows the importance of qualifying first in the group to avoid any big confrontation at the first crossing.

In Braga, in the reunion with a Portuguese rival seven years later and the 151st team they face in European competition, Real Madrid intends to take a giant step towards that first goal of the season.

The whites are planted in Portugal with Bellingham as a reference. The Englishman was the scorer of goals on both days and an assistant, in a high-profile debut in the most prestigious competition. Now, he is looking for partners with whom he can share the responsibility of scoring goals. Vinícius appeared after his injury and Rodrygo is still expected.

For their part, Sporting de Braga will do everything possible to maintain the momentum they achieved with their heroic comeback against Unión Berlin (2-3) in the last round. The Portuguese team seeks to surprise as in 2010, when they beat Cesc Fàbregas and Arsène Wenger’s Arsenal at home (2-0).

And now he wants to take advantage of Real Madrid’s setback on the last day of LaLiga EA Sports, which tied its visit to the Ramón Sánchez Pizjuán Stadium.

The match between Braga of Portugal and Real Madrid, corresponding to the third day of the group stage of the Champions League, will be played this Tuesday, October 24 at 9:00 p.m. The meeting can be seen on television on Movistar and can also be followed live through the La Vanguardia website.
