Coritiba welcome Botafogo FR on Sunday, Oct 11 at 5:00 PM in a Serie A fixture that's tighter on paper than the positions suggest — just 1 point split them in the table.
Coritiba come into this fixture in mixed form (2W 1D 2L). Botafogo FR, meanwhile, arrive in mixed form (2W 2D 1L) — actually the better-performing side in recent weeks. Coritiba head into this on the back of a defeat, while Botafogo FR arrive off a win — momentum clearly with the visitors.
Despite playing at home, Coritiba face a side that has dominated this fixture historically. Botafogo FR have won 6 of 10 encounters, with 3 draws. Their last encounter ended in a 2–2 draw. These two tend to produce goals — averaging 2.8 per game in recent meetings.
Verdict: This looks an evenly matched contest. Home advantage gives Coritiba a slight edge, but Botafogo FR are capable of causing problems. A draw would be a fair result.
