Botafogo, Recent FormLosing 3-2 away to Cruzeiro won't leave the Botafogo squad too downbeat, given the former sits a full 13 places above them in the league. During that encounter they had 43% possession and had 6 attempts on goal with 3 on target, while their opponents hit 5 of their 15 shots on goal.
When it comes to attacking power Fábio Matias will be justly satisfied with his squad's performances of late, which has seen them chalk up 7 goals in their last 6 matches. However, it hasn't all been going well, and questions remain about their defence with 10 goals lost in those 6 matches resulting in some crucial points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, but they have only kept 1 clean sheet in their last 6 games at Estádio Olímpico Nilton Santos.
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 8 consecutive games without grabbing all 3 points.
On an individual basis, Danilo Barbosa will be looking to get on the scoresheet again having scored 3 goals in Botafogo's last 6 league games.
Atletico Goianiense, Recent FormWith Flamengo sitting a clear 16 places above them in the table, Atletico Goianiense won't feel totally dejected with their 2-1 home defeat by them last time out. Their share of possession in that meeting was 32%, while racking up 11 shots along the way, 4 of which were on target. Flamengo had 15 shots on goal with 2 on target.
It's reasonable to say they have enjoyed some decent goal scoring form of late, with 8 goals notched up in their last 6 matches, but while their offensive line is working, their defensive setup has shown cause for concern with 10 goals shipped and valuable points dropped. They have scored in 5 of their last 6 games, and they've kept a clean sheet in 3 of their last 6 games on the road.
With 3 matches lost and only 2 wins in their last 6 away matches lately, this has not been a great spell for the team away from home.
The previous meeting between these two sides was not one to live long in the memory; that match finished without a goal, and both teams settling for a point apiece.
Playing at home, Botafogo have conceded at least one goal in 2 of their last 3 league games against Atletico-GO.
This fixture has produced a draw on the last 2 occasions that these 2 sides have met in the league, but Atletico-GO hold a slight psychological advantage of being unbeaten in their last 6 meetings.
With no real injury worries, Botafogo manager Fábio Matias will be happy to have his full squad available for selection.
There is only really one injury concern for the Atletico-GO manager Jair Ventura ahead of this clash, with Roni Medeiros de Moura (Muscle) missing out, which gives Ventura a strong squad to pick his starting eleven from.
