Team News

Sao Paulo
Botafogo RJ
  • Éder Militão is back after a one-game ban and should start.
  • But there's no Hernanes: he's suspended after three yellow cards.
  • Christian Cueva, back from Peru duty, could come in for him.
  • Jair Ventura will be hoping left-back Victor Luís is fit to return.
  • He missed out against Atlético-GO, with Gilson deputising.
  • Rodrigo Pimpão may return in attack.

Prediction

  • If Botafogo do end up qualifying for the Libertadores, they will owe a lot to the teams directly below them.
  • O Glorioso have now lost three in four, yet they're still sixth because Flamengo and Vasco seem incapable of taking advantage of their slips.
  • São Paulo are unbeaten in their last eight home games, however, so there could be more frustration on the cards here.
