Grêmio and Botafogo have both delivered a "par" performance so far, to use a golfing expression. Both hold mid-table positions in the Serie A.

These are busy days for the home team, as they were in action only four days ago in the Copa Libertadores. That game was an away game at Flamengo, so at least Grêmio are thankful to return home in this one. Game on!

There's local pride at stake here, as these teams are practically neighbours. Expect lots of passion from both players and supporters.
