Match preview

Our model sees little between the sides: Botafogo SP 38%, the draw 28%, Sport Recife 34%.

Our fair price for "Home win" is 2.63 — the pick only has value at a bookmaker price above that.

We expect 2.3 goals in total (1.20 for Botafogo SP, 1.11 for Sport Recife), which points to Under 2.5 as a secondary angle.

Botafogo SP sit 12th on 48 points; Sport Recife are 7th on 55.

Check team news before kick-off — a late change to either line-up moves the numbers.
