Prediction

  • Botafogo sit top of the Brasileirao and have a Copa Libertadores final to look forward to following their 6-3 aggregate win over Penarol in the semi-final of the competition. Their last league outing saw them enjoy a 1-0 victory over Red Bull Bragantino on the road, Fogo are unbeaten in their nine league matches, a record they would love to extend here.
