Fortaleza vs Botafogo Predictions

• Fortaleza have lost six of their last seven league games
• Both teams have scored in five of Botafogo’s last seven matches
• Botafogo have won the last three head-to-heads by at least two goals

Botafogo to recapture form

Botafogo’s title charge has taken a massive hit in recent weeks as they have taken just one point from the last 15 available, they are now two points behind league leaders Palmeiras with a game in hand.

The visitors have had a tough schedule as of late however and a visit to Fortaleza represents a significant lowering of their sights. If they need to recapture their form and return to the top of the table after squandering a big lead, this is the game in which to do it.

Fortaleza have lost six of their last seven in the league and are among the lowest scorers in the league, netting just 36 times in 33 matches, and the hosts look vulnerable.

Fortaleza’s struggles set to continue

Botafogo should be able to bounce back and pick up a crucial win against this Fortaleza side, who have had major issues this season. The hosts are in poor form and have also been seen off comfortably the last three times these two teams have met.

Both teams have scored in five of Botafogo’s last seven games so take that to land in what may be an entertaining clash.

Correct score backers should side with a 2-1 victory for the away side.
