Dinamo Minsk face SC Braga at Stadion Beroe on Thursday, 13 August, with kick-off at 17:00 UTC in the third qualifying round of the UEFA Europa Conference League. SC Braga won the first leg 1-0 on 6 August 2026, and the two sides now meet again at Stadion Beroe.

Dinamo Minsk arrive at this match in difficult form, having lost their last two matches consecutively. Across their last five matches, they have taken 6 points, and their most recent outing was a 1-0 defeat to SC Braga in the first leg, preceded by a 0-1 loss to Neftchi Baku.

SC Braga, by contrast, have taken 11 points from their last five matches. That run includes three wins — among them the first-leg victory over Dinamo Minsk and two matches against Železničar Pančevo — alongside two draws, against Moreirense and Estoril. Their most recent result was a 2-2 draw with Moreirense.

The head-to-head record between these two sides in the current tie stands with SC Braga having taken the first-leg win, 1-0, on 6 August 2026. The tie now moves to Stadion Beroe for Thursday's second leg.

Dinamo Minsk have won two of their last five matches, but both consecutive defeats heading into this fixture leave them needing a turnaround on home soil. SC Braga's 11 points from five matches places them in contrasting form as they travel to face the hosts in the UEFA Europa Conference League third qualifying round.
