Prediction

  • Both come into this all-Rio clash having been in Copa Libertadores action in midweek.
  • Fluminense sit just two points above the drop zone, following last week's 2-1 loss to Juventude away from home. Despite that, in midweek they earned a 1-0 win in the Copa Libertadores over Atletico Mineiro. They will now be eager to carry that performance into this league battle.
  • Botafogo are unbeaten in their last seven matches in all competitions and will be kean on extending that here. Last week they enjoyed a 2-1 win at home against Corinthians. In midweek, they drew 0-0 at home in the Copa Libertadores against Sao Paulo.
  • The last meeting between these sides saw Botafogo enjoy a narrow 1-0 victory thanks to a second-half goal from Bastos.
