Our favourite betting tips and picks for Palmeiras vs Botafogo

If you are struggling to find the right bet for Palmeiras vs Botafogo, take a look at our top betting predictions for this match:

Palmeiras to Win at Half Time and Full Time

While Palmeiras beat Botafogo just once after leading at half time in their previous five h2h meetings, we expect this to happen in their upcoming game.

After all, Palmeiras is a much better team and they are in good form at the moment. And while Botafogo is also doing well in Serie A this season, they are a newly-promoted team. So, the reigning champions of South America are clearly the favourites here and we can see them justifying that tag by winning after leading at half time.

Under 2.5 Total Goals

Four of the last five head-to-head duels between Palmeiras and Botafogo have gone under 2.5 total goals and we can see that happening again on Thursday.

After all, Palmeiras averaged just 2.00 goals per game so far in Serie A, while Botafogo averaged 2.50 goals per game in the league this season.

Both Teams to Score – No

Although both teams scored in the last two h2h meetings between these two teams, that didn’t happen in three games before that. So, we don’t expect both teams to score in this game either.

In addition to this, both teams scored in just 33% of all Palmeiras matches in the league until now. However, this happened in 75% of all Botafogo games in Serie A this season, but we don’t see it happening now.

Palmeiras vs Botafogo preview: A tough task for the guests

Palmeiras

The reigning champions of South America are having a great start of the season so far since they finished Copa Libertadores group stages with all six wins. In addition to this, Palmeiras is currently second in the Brazilian Serie A and just two points behind Corinthians in the first place. Meanwhile, Jailson and Mayke are on the team’s injury list at the moment.

Botafogo

The team that got back to the top flight of Brazilian football this season is doing pretty well so far since they have twelve points from the first nine games, which is enough to put them in the middle of the standings. However, that’s also just a couple of points away from the relegation zone, so it’s clearly way early in the season for Botafogo to be comfortable.
