Make way for one of Brazilian soccer's classic matches on Wednesday night. Botafogo and Flamengo face off with Palmeiras' closest rival needing to win in regulation time. Indeed, CRF is only two points behind the league leaders, which makes the game even more interesting to watch. But Filipe Luis's team only has itself to blame. It lost first place due to 180 minutes of missed opportunities on Brazilian soil. The red and black team just lost 1-0 in Bahia, two days after sharing points with Cruzeiro. If Mengao doesn't want to see the title slip away, a win is a must, no matter how it happens!
Botafogo are also not having a great season so far. The BFR have only won one of their last four games and lost two of their last three 2-0. However, Davide Ancelotti's men are happy to be back in front of their fans, as they have been winning consistently at Nilton Santos since September. Fogo has notably beaten Bahia and Atlético Mineiro by a single goal. Better at home, the black and whites are likely to cause problems for a team under immense pressure.
