On Thursday the boys fly out to Portugal for the second leg of their Europa League tie with Sporting Braga. In the first leg at Molineux, Braga ran out 1-0 winners thanks to a 71st minute strike from Ricardo da Luz Horta. It was the first game that Wolves had lost in their Europa League campaign and they haven’t lost one since. Despite being at home the game came just 5 days after a 5-2 home defeat at the hands of Chelsea which surely had an affect on player confidence. By contrast Wolves go into this game on a run of 8 league games undefeated following their 2-1 victory over Bournemouth on Saturday and there will be no lack of confidence from the visitors on this occasion.

Braga have suffered a dip in league form of late and currently occupy 9th place in the Primeira Liga table having won just one of their last 3 games

Braga top the group K table with 10 points with Wolves just behind on 9 and Wolves need just one more point from the 2 remaining group games to qualify for the knockout stage.

Ex- Braga defender Willy Boly has a long term injury and will not be available for Wolves. Nuno Espirito Santo has no other injury concerns and has a full squad to choose from.

Interesting statistic: Braga have no current Portugal internationals in their squad, Wolves have 5.

The game will be shown live on BT Sport 2

Sounds like a lively night in Porto. Scuffles here and there and alleged that some Wolves caught up with last nights gang and gave them a kicking.

Seen some laughable stuff on twitter, men in their 50s running around like they're playing soldiers in the school playground. W@nkers.

Not sure there are many more embarrassing sights than fully grown men dancing back and forth on a pavement looking as if they want a ruck but with every forward hop they then hop two steps back

Luckily not seen any trouble. Could hear wolves fans on river from apartment about a mile away but decided not to head down there as struggle to get beer. Went to local bar, 50-50 Wolves Liege and good atmosphere, no trouble whatsoever. Did hear there were problems down by river and bars shut, so made a good choice.

Messi played his 700th game for Barcelona tonight, scored his 613th goal and produced his 237th assist. Decent.
