Athletico PR hope to sell some tickets for this game even though the season has been rough so far with 7 points and a 14th position in the Serie A table. Visiting Botafogo holds 13th place with 8 pts.
It's no vacation for neither Athletico nor Botafogo as both were in action only a few days ago. Expect some tired legs on the pitch and/or possibly some changes to the lineups.
Botafogo have a very long trip to this away game, as there's more than 800 kilometers in distance to cover. This could prove a challenge, at least for the supporters.
