Botafogo vs Atletico Mineiro preview: Can Botafogo resist the champions?

Botafogo

With three wins and three losses in the last six games, Botafogo has been a bit inconsistent, but this is obviously not a bad tally for a newly-promoted team. Overall, Botafogo is right in the middle of the standings at the moment, but they are also just three points ahead of the first team in the relegation zone, so things can change quickly – especially since the team has seven player’s on their injury list right now.

Atletico Mineiro

The reigning champions of Brazil are in solid form right now, with three wins and three draws in the last six matches. Along with the previous results, that’s enough to put Atletico in the fourth place, just two points behind Palmeiras, the current league leaders. On top of this, Atletico Mineiro has no injured or suspended players at the moment.
