Prediction

  • Palmeiras suffered their first league loss of the season at the hands of Bahia in midweek. Their 1-0 defeat means every side in the Brasileirão has lost at least once. They will be eager to bounce back at the first time of asking.
  • League leaders, Botafogo come into this duel knowing if they win, they'll move eight points clear of Palmeiras. Last time out, they earned a 1-0 victory away from home against Cuiaba, thanks to a second-half strike from star man Tiquinho Soares. Fogo would love to pick up the three points here but know it won't be an easy task. Their last victory away from home in this fixture came way back in 2014.
