Expert analysis

Chapecoense Set to Stay Within Reach

Botafogo occupy 13th place after 30 games while Chapecoense sit 20th after 29. The home side average 1.7 goals scored and 1.5 conceded in their own stadium this season. Chapecoense have managed only 0.7 goals scored and conceded 1.9 away from home. Head-to-head results show Botafogo winning seven of the last ten meetings with just two of those games producing three or more goals. Chapecoense arrive on the back of four defeats in five league matches and have kept only two clean sheets all campaign. Botafogo have recorded three or more total goals in 19 of their 30 league fixtures so far. The main risk to a tight margin lies in whether Botafogo can convert their home scoring chances before Chapecoense settle into the game.
