Palmeiras to Win
First versus second, five points separate these teams on the Serie A table. As expected, both teams have enjoyed some fine form in recent months. While Botafogo have five wins in their last eight matches, Palmeiras won three of their last four games. It’s fair to point out that Palmeiras have had Botafogo’s number in the past; they are unbeaten in Botafogo’s last five trips to this stadium, with five wins and a draw. Considering the defending Serie A champions also have the advantage of playing at home, we believe they’ll take all three points from this match.
One Team to Blank
For our next Palmeiras vs Botafogo prediction, let’s explore the BTTS market. We would like to point out that Botafogo have been solid defensively; as they did not concede a single goal in their last three games. Conversely, Luis Castro’s men failed to score in three of their last five matches. It may interest you to know that at least one team blanked in all of Botafogo’s last five games, and in six of Palmeiras’ last nine matches. Taking into account that both teams managed to score in just one of Botafogo’s last seven trips to the Allianz Parque, we shouldn’t expect goals at both ends.
Less Than Three Goals
Palmeiras and Botafogo have met a fair few times, and most of those skirmishes have been on the low-scoring side. It’s important to note that six of the last nine encounters between these teams featured less than three goals. In like manner, four of Palmeiras’ last six, and all of Botafogo’s last six matches went below the 2.5 goal margin. For this reason, we don’t think these teams will score up to three goals between them.
Palmeiras vs Botafogo Match Preview, Analysis, and Latest Team News
Palmeiras
Palmeiras suffered their first loss of their Serie A campaign at the hands of Bahia a couple of days ago; they had won three consecutive matches before that loss, scoring nine goals. Abel Ferreira’s men will hope to put that disappointing loss behind them as they take on league leaders Botafogo.
Botafogo
After a three-match winless run, Botafogo have rediscovered their form; they are coming off back-to-back victories, conceding no goals in the process. This will be a tricky fixture for the visitors, as they go up against second-placed Palmeiras. It’ll be interesting to see how they’ll match-up against the defending champions.
Palmeiras vs Botafogo Lineups
Marcos Rocha remains Palmeiras’ only absentee, as he’s still recovering from a thigh injury. On the other hand, Botafogo will not be able to call upon the services of Lucas Fernandes, Fernando Marcel and Gabriel Pires.
