Botafogo know what's at stake, and so do Fluminense.
There's barely anything between these two. Botafogo (6th, 63 pts) and Fluminense (5th, 64 pts) meet in a fixture that could shape the Brasileirão Série A table.
The lead strikers on both sides carry the narrative here. Botafogo will lean on whoever's hot in front of goal, while Fluminense travel with the same brief: find a way past a back four that's been organised more often than not this season.
Botafogo will be looking to make home advantage count (W11 D5 L3 at home). Fluminense's away record reads W4 D6 L9. The visitors need to start well or this could get away from them.
xG explained: Expected Goals measures chance quality. 1.5 xG = a side typically converts those chances into 1.5 goals. Outscoring xG = running hot, possible regression risk.
Botafogo create chances worth 1.6 a game (and give up chances worth 1.3), leaving them +0.3 a game on the balance. Fluminense create 1.4 (giving up 0.8) for a balance of +0.6. On the quality of chances, Fluminense look the stronger side. they create more and give up less.
This doesn't look like a high-scoring one. Botafogo average 1.5 goals per game and Fluminense manage 1.3. Combined that's just 2.8. We make it only 1% for three or more, so the lean is towards a lower-scoring game.
Both sides are in the chasing pack. Botafogo (6th) and Fluminense (5th) are still in touch with the playoff places, and a result here matters.
