Botafogo form and stats

There might be some complaints about the fixture list from the Botafogo manager A. Valentim as the team has another away game coming up in only three days, this time against Madureira.

The last season was not a pleasant experience for Botafogo as they could not accumulate enough points to survive. After only 13 victories from 38 games, relegation was a fact. Botafogo's manager A. Valentim are hoping to lead the team right back to Serie A at the first attempt.
