Braga will travel to Bulgaria to face Levski in the Europa League qualifiers aiming for a first-leg advantage. Levski comes off a strong start in their domestic league, winning 5-0 against Montana. They have been solid at home, suffering only one defeat this year. Levski's defender Maicon returns from suspension, and Marin Pektov is expected to be a key player. Meanwhile, Braga ended last season poorly but had an impressive pre-season, winning all five friendly matches convincingly. They are looking to make a strong statement in this Europa League qualifier.
Levski will certainly be relishing a return to Sofia on Thursday evening. Picking up some perfect momentum last weekend as they opened the 2025/26 campaign with a routine 5-0 romp against Montana.
Braga might have failed to win any of their final four domestic appearances last season but have embarked on a summer flurry, winning all of their five friendly matchups by an aggregate score of 10-2.
