Why Bet on Botafogo?

Botafogo has remained at the top of the Brasileirão standings for much of this 2024 season. Right now, they have a record of 15 wins, five draws, and five losses, with 43 goals scored and 24 conceded.

The team has accumulated 50 points so far, but they have Fortaleza (48), Palmeiras (47), and Flamengo (44) very close in the standings. As a result, they need to be more decisive and not falter against teams that, in theory, are one step below them, especially as visitors, where their Achilles heel has been.

The Fogão comes from three wins, one draw, and one loss in their last five games, the most recent being a key victory over Fortaleza by 2-0.

Why Bet on Corinthians?

On the other hand, we have Corinthians, an iconic and very popular team in Brazilian territory, which is playing a season to forget and could shamefully fall to Série B.

The Coringão is ranked #17 in the standings with a record of five wins, ten draws, and ten losses, with 22 goals scored and 31 conceded.

If Corinthians wants to stay in Série A, they will need to close the season on a positive note with several consecutive victories, otherwise, they will fall further away. We must consider that, among their rivals to evade the drop, are teams like Fluminense and Grêmio, who have recovered sensations in the last couple of months and possess rosters equally as good or even better than the Pulistas.

They come into this matchday after one win, three draws, and one loss in their last five matches, the most recent being an extraordinary and unexpected victory over Flamengo by 2-1.
