Botafogo Palmeiras betting prediction


Betting suggestion:

Even playing at home, Botafogo will face many difficulties, as they will face a strong opponent, so will have to work hard within the four lines. Palmeiras are the clear favorite to conquer the title, and should go to the field with the purpose of winning because they want to remain in the lead. This should be a game where both teams will be looking for attacking moves, so our betting suggestion will be for both teams to score at least one goal each until the end of the 90 minutes.
