Cruzeiro vs Botafogo Prediction & Betting Tips - Brasileirão Serie A

 by | in Football Predictions

Cruzeiro, who have not won any of their last five matches, will be hoping for an improvement when they host Botafogo in a Sunday 6th August Brazilian Serie A tie in Belo Horizonte and they will be right to fancy their chances in the game, as they have dominated this tie previously. Cruzeiro head to the game having lost once and drawn four times in their last five matches. They are however unbeaten at home in the last seven matches, with the previous five having yielded three draws and two wins, with seven goals scored and three conceded. In the last five meetings, they have lost to Botafogo just once but heading to this game, fatigue may be a concern, since they play Vasco da Gama away on Friday before preparing to host Botafogo. The visitors, on the other hand, will head to the game right from a loss to Palmeiras in their round 18 tie on Thursday; they will have a day more to rest before meeting Cruzeiro but they will be keen to bring to an end a run that has seen them lose their last two matches. Botafogo head to the game with a run of two losses a win and two draws. In the last five away matches, they have managed two draws, two wins and a loss, scoring three goals and conceding two. Botafogo have three clean sheets in their last five away matches and have won just three in their last 16 away matches. Head to head, the teams have met 31 times before with Cruzeiro winning 14 and Botafogo 11.

Our Cruzeiro vs Botafogo Prediction

Cruzeiro have been the dominant side in this fixture in the recent past and though their overall run of form does not favor them heading into this game, they will want to heavily bank on their home advantage, that which has seen them go seven matches unbeaten. Botafogo’s advantage in this game is the fact that they will have rested 24 hours more by the time they play Cruzeiro and they will be seeking to end a bad run away from home which has seen them pick just three wins in the last 16 away matches. This game seems poised for a draw.
