There's been ups and downs for these two teams so far this season, occupying positions near the middle of the Serie A table so far. Here's the Botafogo - Goiás latest:

There’s little time for restitution or working hard at the training pitch these days, with both teams having played their last game less than four days ago.

Everyone involved with the away team has to get their travel gear ready for this match as there's a whopping 1300 kilometers to cover before arriving at the match.

Botafogo form and stats

Botafogo have collected 16 points from their Serie A home games so far after 5-1-5. It's trouble wherever Botafogo are playing these days as they have suffered four straight defeats now, regardless of arena. They really need to get back to winning ways. We have seen two home losses in a row now for Botafogo, who are hoping that the phrase “third time lucky” applies to them.

Botafogo's previous game was also a home match, the defeat 0-1 versus Fluminense (placed 15th). Prior to that, an away loss at Fortaleza.

The home team are moderate favourites in this game. How does Botafogo handle that role? We have found five games in our database similar to this one, based on the home odds. The win/draw/lost stats in these games are W5-D0-L0.

Botafogo are traveling soon after this match as the Serie A match at Palmeiras awaits in three days.

Botafogo aren't scoring a lot here at Estádio Nilton Santos in the league, with only 10 goals from 11 games. From these home matches, Botafogo have conceded only 10 goals.

Goiás form and stats

There's been little loot from Goiás's travels as they have only collected 11 points from 12 away games in the Serie A. Goiás only have 3 wins to counter their 7 defeats and 2 draws. The visitors have performed well in their home games as well, building a total win streak of four games home and away. Goiás hope to make it five in this match. It could be a hat trick of victories away for Goiás, as they have won on their previous two travels.

Two travels in a row for Goiás, whose manager Lauro could celebrate last time after the Serie A win against Ceara. Prior to that match, a home win 1-0 against Cruzeiro.

We have checked recent matches where Goiás have had similar odds to win. Win-draw-lose statistics from those five games were W1-D3-L1.

A new game in only three days for Goiás, the Serie A home match versus CSA. Busy days.

Many goals are not expected from the visiting Goiás as they have only managed to score 7 times from 12 away games in the league. In the opposite end, Goiás have conceded 23 goals in their away games.

Head 2 Head

The last H2H meeting was Goiás - Botafogo 1-0, played this season. Head-to-head totals (for the last ten meetings): Botafogo won 3 games, 1 match ended with a draw and Goiás has 6 wins. Over 2,5 goals / under 2,5 goals: 5 / 5
