The -120 available about the game ending all square or Botafogo triumphing looks the best betting prediction, with the Double Chance market giving us the chance to bet against São Paulo.

Expert Analysis

The team news that filters through can have a knock-on effect as far as the odds are concerned. We use this information along with the form guide, while the latest stats are also taken into consideration.

Key São Paulo vs Botafogo stats:

  • São Paulo have failed to win any of their last 4 matches
  • Botafogo have not lost any of their last 10 matches
  • Botafogo have won 15 of their past 19 matches
  • Botafogo have scored 2 or more goals in 13 of their past 19 matches
  • Botafogo have kept 11 clean sheets in their past 19 matches

The best angle of attack could be the away team and the draw on the Double Chance market. We like the -120 for this pick and we need the hosts to not win this Serie A clash.

A cracking alternative at bigger odds would be backing Botafogo on the Draw No Bet market where you get money back if the game ends all square.
