Why Bet on Botafogo?
The head coach Luís Castro is almost changing the first team every game, trying to find the perfect match among his players. Botafogo is positioned at 12th, just three points ahead of the 17th position – the closest team to get out of the relegation zone.
Although the results are not satisfying for the supporters, the truth is that Botafogo has been playing some good games – even the one against Santos, when they lost 2-0.
Botafogo is putting some young talents on the pitch, such as Matheus Nascimento, Kayque, and the astonishing Jeffinho, a fast and technical winger. If those guys get along together, Botafogo will harvest a beautiful style of play, which can result in more goals and more wins.
Why Bet on Athletico-PR?
Athletico-PR is one of the most structured teams in Brazil and South America. That said, it’s easy to see the effects of this organization on the field. Athletico just beat Palmeiras playing away from home a few weeks ago, and they simply don’t fear any club in Brazil.
Head Coach Felipão has implemented a solid defense, putting Athletico as a standout in terms of goals allowed in the competition. The midfielder Terans is also a great piece in this gear, scoring goals almost every game.
The team is fast, well organized, and with good individual talents, but the real strength is in the collective play.
