What shaped the view
- + Quarter-final setup and these official 4-3-3s point to a controlled first hour more than an open trade.
- + Betis are without Isco and Lo Celso, while Braga miss Zalazar; both XIs lose creative punch and lean on three-man midfields.
- + The 1X2 is close to even, so the quarter-line under is a cleaner read than forcing a side.

Why it made the board
Both official lineups are missing key creators, and each side has gone with a control-first midfield shape. With the winner market still tight, Under 2.25 is the clearest angle on a game that should produce fewer clean chances than usual.
Main risk
Tactical Counter: The main danger is an early goal opening the match up, with Abde, Cucho and Horta capable of turning transitions into a higher-event game.
