The brain read
SC Braga created the better chances — the xG read 1.1–2.3 and the shot count agreed (6–16, 2–6 on target). SC Braga got into the box far more often (8 shots inside it to 3) and SC Braga held 68% of the ball. On the balance of chances, the 1–2 reads fair.
A second opinion written by rule from the numbers on this page — where the shot picture and the xG disagree, it says so rather than picking a winner. Backward-looking only; it claims nothing about any future result.
