Botafogo, Recent FormBotafogo had to make do with a share of the points in their last match, with a 1-1 draw against Athletico Paranaense. During that encounter they had 60% possession and had 7 attempts on goal with 4 on target, while their opponents hit 1 of their 6 shots on goal.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 6 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 5 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. Their goal scoring streak at home now stands at 15 games in a row, but they have failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 games overall.
They've drawn their last 2 league games at Estádio Olímpico Nilton Santos, but their search for a home win in the league extends even further having gone 3 consecutive games without grabbing all 3 points.
On an individual basis, Tiquinho Soares will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 16 goals in Botafogo's 28 league games this season.
Cuiaba, Recent FormThe Cuiabá players will be feeling somewhat disenchanted with their inability to pick up any points from their home fixture against Corinthians recently, that ended in a 1-0 defeat. They came away from that fixture with a 49% share of the possession and clocked up 17 attempts on goal with 2 on target, in comparison to Corinthians, who managed 9 attempts on goal, 5 of which were on target.
They have amassed a limited number of points from their last 6 matches, despite only letting in 3 goals; this has been primarily due to their indifferent form in front of goal with 7 goals spread across those 6 matches. They've failed to keep a clean sheet in 5 of their last 6 away games.
They're experiencing a relativley poor spell of form on the road, having lost 4 of their last 6 away games despite notching up a couple of wins.
With 2 goals scored in his last 6 away games for Cuiabá, Deyverson Brum Silva Acosta will be looking to add more goals against Botafogo in this match.
It was not a positive ending for Cuiabá last time they met Botafogo in the league, with the game ending in a 0-1 defeat.
Cuiaba 0 - 0 BotafogoBotafogo 0 - 1 CuiabaWith both Patrick de Paula (Knee) and Rafael Pereira da Silva (Knee) being out for the rest of the season and Lucas Fernandes (Unknown) also unavailable in the shorter term, Botafogo manager Lúcio Flávio will be relieved to have no other major fitness concerns going into this tie.
Cuiabá manager António Oliveira has no real injury worries ahead of this clash.
