Palmeiras vs Botafogo Prediction & Betting Tips - Copa Libertadores
by Nella Wagah in Copa Libertadores Predictions
Botafogo can build on their good season with a quarter-final appearance in the Copa Libertadores. They will travel to Sao Paulo to face Palmeiras in the return leg of their Round of 16 tie this Wednesday. Read on for the preview and our prediction of this match.
Palmeiras are eyeing a seventh straight spot in the last eight of the Copa Libertadores but come here trailing 2-1. The hosts are enduring a shaky season so far and their first leg loss only made matters worse.
Abel Ferreira’s side warmed up for this game with an ill-tempered Sao Paulo derby win and will hope to carry the charm to this game. The 2-1 victory at home was just their second in the last eight matches, and they have just one clean sheet in that run.
Botafogo have dominated recent matches against Palmeiras and come here seeking a third straight win in this fixture. The visitors are on a slim but crucial lead as they head to the return leg.
In their last two matches they beat Palmeiras and Flamengo, wins that will give them massive confidence here. O Glorioso’s most recent outing ended in a 4-1 win at home to Flamengo, tightening their hold of top spot in Serie A.
A run of five matches without defeat in the Copa Libertadores will also push Fogo’s confidence higher. They have four wins in that run and this should be the basis to improve on their away record. The visitors have one win in six away matches in the Copa Libertadores.

Our Palmeiras vs Botafogo Prediction
Palmeiras have struggled a bit against Botafogo in recent matches, losing three of their last four meetings. Being the most successful of the two and playing at home, Palmeiras will be favorites to overturn their deficit.
However, they aren’t really solid defensively, keeping two clean sheets only in eight Libertadores matches. This could be an issue for the hosts to address but the visitors haven't kept many of those lately either. Our prediction for Palmeiras v Botafogo is for both teams to score.
