Botafogo stumbled in two consecutive matches, reducing the gap to pursuer Palmeiras to just two points. Next is a crucial home game against Vitoria.
The guests took a priceless victory
Vitoria managed to take a big step towards salvation by beating direct competitor in the battle for survival, Criciuma, 1-0 as a guest. It is less likely to talk about a victory in this visit, considering that Botafogo generally plays quite dominantly. "The Blacks" outplayed Atletico Mineiro as guests a few days ago, but the finishing touch turned out to be inaccurate. For this duel, the two most important attackers - Igor Jesus and Jefferson Savarino, who were not available a few days ago due to national team commitments, will be available. This may be enough to achieve a key success.
Bet on Botafogo to win with a clean sheet
Botafogo is very strong in defense and I expect them to win by a small margin.
