Botafogo SP welcome Novorizontino on Tuesday, Sep 8 at 5:00 PM in a Serie B fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 2 points split them in the table.
Botafogo SP come into this fixture in mixed form (2W 2D 1L). Novorizontino travel in mixed form (2W 0D 3L), which may hand the initiative to the hosts. Botafogo SP head into this on the back of a defeat, while Novorizontino arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.
In 10 previous meetings, Botafogo SP lead 3–5 with 2 draws. Their last encounter ended in Botafogo SP won 0–1.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Botafogo SP a slight edge, but Novorizontino are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
