The 2022-23 campaign delivered a powerful resurgence for Braga as Os Arcebispos secured a spectacular 3rd-place finish in the Primeira Liga, their best in five seasons. Under manager Artur Jorge, the team's relentless form secured a highly coveted spot in the UEFA Champions League qualifying rounds, a true high point for the club. Spearheading the charge was their talismanic captain, Ricardo Horta, whose 14 league goals, part of his 17 total goals, proved vital in a season built on renewed confidence and attacking prowess, which also included a run to the Taça de Portugal final. It was a statement year that signalled a significant step forward for the club's modern history.
