Copa Sudamericana Betting Preview: Botafogo vs Racing Club

Brazilian Série A team Botafogo host Argentine Primera División outfit Racing Club, with kick-off set for 20:30 on Wednesday 6 May.

There’s plenty of juice when it comes to backing the -103 about Over 2.5 on the Total Goals market. Botafogo and Racing should be able to find the net at least three times combined and we’re optimistic of a payout.

Botafogo lost when last in action. They were turned over 2-1 at home to Remo in Série A. Fogo had most of the ball recording 58% possession and five shots on target, while Nahuel Ferraresi registered the goal.

Racing Club played Huracán at home in their previous game. It was a 0-0 Primera División draw. The Avellaneda club had the lion’s share of the ball enjoying 63% possession and one shot on goal.

In their last Copa Sudamericana games, Botafogo were at home to Independiente Petrolero and won 3-0, while Racing visited Caracas and played out a 1-1 draw.
