Another interesting game in the Serie A. Bragantino is in the 6th position after playing one matches. They welcome Botafogo who are placed 10th after zero games.

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only three days ago in the Serie A. That game was an away game at Santos, so at least Bragantino are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!
