Ceará vs Botafogo SP Odds

The odds and lines below are updated regularly and may differ from the prices shown in our picks, which are captured at the time of publication.

Ceará Have the Shortest Odds to Win

With an approximate 54% chance of succeeding, the bookies are being cautious with their -118 betting odds for Ceará triumphing in this Série B encounter. At +350, Botafogo SP are regarded as having a lower probability of winning.

You can choose Ceará -0.5 or Botafogo +0.5 at respective Asian Handicap odds of -119 and -108. The former is the same as betting the favourites to win, with the latter giving you a return if it’s a draw.

The Total Goals odds suggest that Under 2.5 is the likelier outcome in this contest. The Both Teams to Score No wager is -147 and it’s perfect if you anticipate that one side or more will fail to score by the full-time whistle.

You’ll love the hundreds of markets if you want to wager on the Série B coupon and we advise heading to the leading sports betting sites to get the football wager that you think is value.
