I think this year we're seeing the weakest version of Braga. They usually have a good start to the season, which didn't happen. Perhaps the pressure to win the Europa League playoffs created greater wear and tear on the team, but such poor performance at the beginning of the season is not common.
Honestly, I don't see Braga this season being as competitive as we're used to. But maybe this break for the national teams can help us catch our breath and things can start to be different from now on.
I am not worried about Braga's performance. And I cannot agree with you that this season we are seeing Braga's weakest condition . Because for the last few seasons I have seen irregular performance of this team. Last season Braga won only 19 matches out of 34 matches. And was in fourth place in the table. This season Braga has won two out of 4 matches. But so far the team is undefeated. I see the same kind of performance from the team as in the previous seasons. So I do not see any reason to be upset. The team has been able to qualify for the Europa league and this is their big achievement. Not much good performance can be expected from Braga in the Portuguese league. I am waiting to see how the team performs in the Europa League.
