Botafogo vs Cruzeiro MG

Botafogo finished last season at 9th position but whole season they have belonged among the best teams. In the last 6 games they managed to get just one point and good season was over. On the home pitch they were with balance 11-5-3 among the best with the score 37:19. In that bad finished they lost two and tied one game at home. New season they have started great, won against title favorite Sao Paulo (4:2) and brought points home from Coritiby (3:2).

 

They will try to succeed 3rd time against Cruzeiro.

 

Visitors experienced nightmare last season and just because of the last round they are this season among elite teams. On the road they were among weakest teams and years before it was their strong side. New season they have started with two ties 0-0 against Goianense and Nautico, which are weaker teams. In the 1st round Alex Silva, their defenseman got injured and this are not good news.

 

H2H last season is good for Botafogo which won 1-0 both games and just one time in then last 8 meeting we have seen more than 2 goals.

 

I like the odds for under as well and this is my bet for this game.
