The league phase draw for the Europa Conference League took place and placed SC Braga on a path with two teams: Copenhagen and Gent. The minhoto arsenals will therefore face these two clubs during the league phase of the competition.

SC Braga entered the draw as a seeded team, which gave them some advantage when being paired with their opponents. This position reflects the classification that the club achieved in previous seasons at European level.

The Conference League is the third most important competition in European football in terms of prestige, and the league phase involves a larger number of teams that face each other in a round-robin format before the elimination play-offs.

With these two opponents on their path, Braga aims to move forward in the competition and secure passage to the next phase, continuing to represent Portugal in this European competition.
