Gameday in Rio for the round 9 between Botafogo & Goias.

Botafogo is without Carlinhos, Diego Loureiro, Philipe Sampson & Rafael.

Goias is without Hugo & Vilela.

Botafogo is ranked 10 with 3 wins, 3 draws & 2 losses for 11 goals scored & 9 goals conceded.

Goias is ranked 16 with 2 wins, 3 draws & 3 losses for 8 goals scored & 11 goals conceded.

Very good spot here on Goias even if of course I rate Botafogo stronger, they have a very good team for a promoted team as I already said this season they invested a lot with the investor from USA.

They bring a good staff who was in Al Duhail in Qatar. They added some good players as Tche Tche, Victor Sa, de Paula.

I’m not a big fan about the line up today with Vinicius Lopez, Lucas Fernandes & Hugo starting.

Goias is in a great momentum as they just qualified over Bragantino in Cup, they played really well and they deserved the qualification.

For this game they have only Maguinho & Matheus starting who aren’t usual starters.

I expect an offensive game as both teams can be offensively minded but especially Botafogo. I don’t see an easy game for Botafogo.

I expect 1-1 or 2-1.
