Player Prop Picks

Top Pick: Luiz Araújo Under 0.5 Shots On Target -143 BetMGM logo

Luiz Araújo (Flamengo) can be backed at -143 to finish without a shot on goal. The odds look attractive based on the evidence and we’ll take a chance on him on the Shots on Target market.

Jefferson Savarino to Score +550 BetMGM logo

Jefferson Savarino (Botafogo) has racked up two goals in his past five Série A games on home soil. We think there’s value in backing him for an Anytime Goalscorer prop bet at +550 which will hopefully see him find the net.

Corners Prediction

Over 9.5 Corners -123 BetMGM logo

There has been four straight Botafogo home matches where 9.5 Total Corners has been covered, while it has been an average of 10.80 corners in the previous ten Flamengo games. If you agree with our verdict that the Total Corners line is too low, go for odds of -123 that the teams go over.
