Braga vs. Union Berlin preview: Team news and predicted lineups

Here is our preview of Wednesday's Champions League group stage clash between Braga and Union Berlin, including predicted lineups.
Union Berlin will play their first game under new head coach Nenad Bjelica on Wednesday when they take on Braga away in the Champions League.

Bjelica has replaced long-serving coach Urs Fischer, who left the club earlier this month after a 4-0 defeat at Bayer Leverkusen extended the capital club's winless streak to 14 games.

In a game they largely dominated, Union couldn't end their winless run against Augsburg under caretaker coach Marco Grote, but managed to salvage a draw thanks to Kevin Volland's spirited late equaliser.

Bottom of Group C, Union now travel to Braga, who will need a win to keep their hopes of progressing to the knockout stages alive.

The Portuguese hosts are coming off a convincing 4-1 win over Portimonense and sit fourth in the league table.

Al Musrati is a doubt for Braga, while Union are sweating over the fitness of Leonardo Bonucci, Danilho Doekhi and Sheraldo Becker, who all missed out at the weekend.
