Portsmouth will be eyeing a strong encounter when they make the trip to Portugal to face Braga, our coverage starting from 17:50 GMT Thursday 23^rd October 2008.

Portsmouth have been in flying form both at home and in Europe as they continue their new found optimism. The likes of Defoe and Crouch have formed a brilliant strike partnership up front while the defence looks equally formidable with Sol Campbell and Silvian Distin. Portsmouth secured a place in the UEFA Cup on the virtue of their FA Cup finish last season. In a funny turn of events, this will be Portsmouth's third successive meeting with Portuguese opponents. They beat Vitoria SC 2-0 at home in their debut European game in the first round of this season's UEFA Cup, but had to score twice in extra time at Guimaraes to progress, having lost 2-0 over 90 minutes. With Jermaine Defoe in top form and a combative midfield to boot, Portsmouth will be rank on favourites when they face up to Braga over the weekend in the UEFA Cup.

Braga on the other hand, have had nothing but ill luck against English side in recent years. The Portuguese outfit snapped up against Tottenham two seasons ago before enduring yet another disappointing performance against Everton last time around. However, a strong domestic run so far this season has seen their moral improve and they will be hoping to continue that with a victory over Portsmouth at home.
