Botafogo de Futebol e Regatas vs Fluminense FC Prediction 12 June 2024
Added on 10 June, 2024
One of the main attractions of the Brasileirao gameweek 8 will be the Rio de Janeiro derby between Botafogo and Fluminense!
Having gained 13 points with a goal difference of 13:7, Botafogo are firmly in third position and will certainly force a fight for the league title, just like last year. It should be noted that in the last five meetings, the Stars defeated Juventude 5:1, Flamengo 2:0 and Corinthians 1:0, tied 1:1 with Fortaleza and lost 1:2 to Bahia.
While Fluminense, after winning 2:1 against Vasco da Gama, fell into a losing streak - as a result, draws 2:2 with Atletico Mineiro and 1:1 with Juventude, as well as a fiasco 0:3 with Corinthians and 1:2 with Sao Paulo. As a result, the current Copa Libertadores holders are only fifteenth with six points and goal statistics of 9:13.
We believe that Botafogo, which are in much better shape, have a good chance of at least not losing in this confrontation. And given the specifics of the teams' play, it is unlikely to be rich in goals.
Botafogo not to lose and under 3.5 goals in the match 1.70
