An important duel in the bottom section of the Serie B, with both Guarani and Botafogo SP experiencing more worry than joy. This match is a classic "six-pointer" with the home team placed 14th and the visitors in 19th place.
Both teams have had enough rest since their last competitive action. Let's hope for an energetic game!
