Botafogo vs Internacional Prediction & Preview
Preview
The Brazil Serie A is set to witness an exciting encounter on Saturday, July 20th, as Botafogo takes on Internacional at the Centro de Formação de Atletas TROPS. This 18th-round match promises to be a thrilling contest between two teams with contrasting fortunes in the league.
Botafogo, currently sitting atop the Serie A table with 36 points, has been in scintillating form lately. They have won four and drawn one of their last five matches, taking 13 points from those games. Their recent victory against Palmeiras at home, where they won 1-0, will surely boost their confidence.
On the other hand, Internacional is struggling to find consistency, occupying the 13th spot with 19 points. They have managed only one win, two losses, and two draws in their last five outings, collecting just five points from those games. Their recent away defeat against Rosario Central, where they lost 1-0, will be a concern for coach Pablo De Toledo Fernandez.
The head-to-head record between these teams is intriguing, with Internacional holding a slight edge. In their last five meetings, Botafogo has won twice, while Internacional has emerged victorious three times, with no draws. Their most recent encounter on December 7th, 2023, saw Internacional triumph 3-1 over Botafogo at Estádio José Pinheiro Borda.
Botafogo's home form is impressive, with an average of 2 goals scored per game and none conceded. Internacional, on the other hand, has struggled on the road, scoring an average of 0.67 goals per game while conceding one goal per game.
Bet
Considering Botafogo's superior form and dominant home record, I would recommend a Home Win at odds of 1.75. While Internacional has a slight edge in their head-to-head record, Botafogo's current momentum and strong home performances make them the likelier winners. The relatively low odds for a Home Win suggest a high probability of success, making it an attractive bet.
