SC Braga will secure a first-place finish in UEFA Europa League Group F if they defeat away-day specialists FC Slovan Liberec for a third time. • Braga qualify with a win or if they draw and Marseille lose to eliminated FC Groningen. • Slovan need to win, and for Marseille to lose, to progress on matchday five. Previous meetings • Rafa Silva scored on his European debut as Braga beat Liberec 1-0 in the Czech Republic on matchday one in their second encounter in UEFA competition. It was Braga's 100th UEFA game. • The clubs first met in a 2006/07 UEFA Cup group stage match when Carlos Carvalhal's Braga beat Vítězslav Lavička's Slovan 4-0 in Portugal. • Liberec defeated Estoril Praia 2-1 home and away in their only other fixtures against Portuguese opponents, in the 2013/14 UEFA Europa League group stage. Form guide • Braga have won their last four UEFA Europa League group stage home games. • Liberec have won all four of their European away matches this season without conceding – a 3-0 followed by three 1-0s. • Losing finalists in 2011 – when they transferred over at the end of the UEFA Champions League group stage – Braga have made it to the round of 32 in all four of their previous UEFA Cup and UEFA Europa League group stage campaigns. • This is Liberec's third appearance in this group stage; they fell short in the 2006/07 UEFA Cup group stage, but advanced to the round of 32 in 2013/14. Trivia and links • The journey from Liberec to Braga is just over 2,050km. • The game is taking place the day after Braga defender Ricardo Ferreira's 23rd birthday. The coaches • Appointed Braga coach this summer, former defender Paulo Fonseca had a low-key playing career. Having made his name in the second division as boss of CD Aves, Fonseca twice coached FC Paços de Ferreira in the top flight either side of a stint in charge of FC Porto, where he was once on the books as a player. • Jindřich Trpišovský took control at Slovan in June. It was a major top-flight appointment for the coach, who models himself on Liverpool FC's Jürgen Klopp. Once a youth coach at AC Sparta Praha, he previously led second-division FK Viktoria Žižkov, impressing despite the club's financial problems.
