My Prediction
Botafogo by 1Looking at this Brasileiro Série A matchup we have the Vasco going up against Botafogo. We have to note that Botafogo is performing better in terms of the regular season records where they stand at 5-3-3 compared to Vasco's 4-1-7. Glancing at the history, Botafogo also seems to have a mild upper hand here in past matchups.
No goalkeeper insights are available for Botafogo but we do know that Léo Jardim is working the net for Vasco with a sturdy 6.80 rating and a decent 2 saves. Fair play to him.
Taking a peek into the player pool for Vasco, Paulo Henrique and Nuno Moreira are notable ones to watch, with fine ratings of 8.20 and 7.80 complemented by accurate passing percentages of 80.0 and 86.5 respectively. Add to that Rayan, 1 goal under his belt and a very respectable 7.90 rating, and it seems Vasco might end up giving Botafogo a run for their money.
Rooting through the recent results makes the matchup seem almost balanced, Vasco had a couple of slips but they managed to pull a victory against São Paulo recently. Botafogo, on the other hand, seems to be quite consistent in their performance with their recent victory against Ceará cementing their status as a resonable team.
We're a bit in the dark with regards to the player stats for Botafogo, but if those front-office folks did their jobs right, they might have a few athletes worth their salts in the ranking. One would think.
So folks, it seems to be quite an interesting match to wager on. One could go in either direction and nobody would blame you. But given the data it seems Botafogo might just scrape through with a marginal win. Auditorium etiquette be darned, I'm going to go ahead and place this prediction.
