Botafogo Ceará betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

The Botafogo team wants to add the three points, but is aware that they will not find any slack on the pitch. Visitors want at least one point, so they should mark strongly. This tends to be a truncated game with a lot of marking, so we will bet that there will be no more than 2.5 goals in the match.

Botafogo and Ceará face at Estádio Nilton Santos, in a match for the 19th round of the Serie A.

Although this is a match between 16th and 10th of the league table, it’s actually a match between the 17th best in home matches and the 17th best in away matches.

The situation experienced by Botafogo is really complicated and saying that is not an exaggeration.

It knows that needs to conquer a victory in the current round, especially knowing that Ceará is a direct competitor. Therefore, they will have to evolve in relation to their football so as not to run the risk of stumbling again.

Confirmed Lineup: Diego Cavalieri, Kanu, Kevin, Marcelo Benevenuto, Warley, Victor Luis, Alexander Lecaros, Caio Alexandre, Matheus Babi, Matheus Nascimento de Paula, Bruno Nazário.
