Botafogo Hold Edge At Home Over Vasco

Botafogo sit 12th after 28 games while Vasco occupy 16th following their 27 matches. At the Olimpico Nilton Santos, Botafogo average 1.7 goals scored and 1.4 conceded per game this season. Vasco manage just 1.0 goal scored away from home and ship 1.8 on the road. In the last ten meetings Botafogo secured four wins and three draws against Vasco. Botafogo also reach three or more total goals in 18 of their 28 league games. Vasco arrive with three wins in their last five outings but face a side that rarely loses ground at home. The game may turn on whether Vasco can break down a Botafogo defence that has kept four clean sheets already.
