Team News

Botafogo RJ
Bahia
  • Soares, Nascimento and Rafael miss out through injury.
  • Ryan is edging closer to return following an ankle issue.
  • Acevedo misses through injury.

Prediction

  • Botafogo enjoyed a statement 2-0 win against rivals Flamengo at the Maracana on Sunday afternoon. They’ll be eager to do something similar in this battle. In midweek, in the Copa do Brasil, Fogo saw off Vitoria in a 1-0 home win.
  • Bahia are unbeaten in their last three league outings, the most recent being a 1-0 victory against Gremio at home. They haven’t been in Cup action this week, giving them extra time to prepare for the battle here.
