=11.5ptThe loss to Sao Paulo was the second in the league for Flamengo and aided Sao Paulo to close in on them, to just one point, in second place, which will serve to pressure Flamengo in this game. Just what Botafogo, who have a 0 goal difference, would have wished for. Flamengo have a loss, drawn and three wins in their last five matches and at home it is the same run. They have scored six and conceded twice in their last five home matches. They have just one loss in 10 matches, have scored in eight of the 10 matches and have seven clean sheets in the process. In the league, Flamengo have lost just three of their last 16 matches. Botafogo on the other hand have a loss, two draws and two wins in five matches and have three losses, a draw and a win in the last five away matches. In their last 15 matches they have kept just two clean sheet. Four wins in 10 away games, and one clean sheet in 10 in the league away from home is what’s paraded there. This clash has yielded over 2.5 goals just once in the last seven meetings and head to head, they have met 65 times with 26 going Flamengo’s way as Botafogo boasts of 12 wins.
