The Ecuadorian side, LDU Quito, will look to eliminate Botafogo from the 2025 CONMEBOL Libertadores when they clash on Thursday night. The home side will be eager to bounce back from their 1-0 defeat in the reverse fixture in Brazil. It was an impressive performance for the Ecuadorians, who had 12 shots with three hitting the target. They also stood toe-to-toe with Botafogo, controlling 49% of the ball possession. LDU will want to build on that performance.
Conversely, Botafogo will be disappointed with their performance in the first leg, setting up a tense clash in the return fixture. Everyone expected the 2024 champions to win by a significant margin and put this fixture beyond LDU's reach. However, their solitary goal came in the first minute through Artur Victor Guimares and failed to get the second and decisive goal. Following this result, Claudio Cacapa's side is the +220 betting underdog.

Our LDU Quito vs Botafogo Prediction
LDU Quito will be under pressure to stun the reigning champions and progress to the next round. They were resilient in the first leg, and the home support in this reverse fixture should help them be more adventurous in front of goal. However, Botafogo have lost only once in this competition while winning five times, making them serious title contenders. They can be quick off the mark, scoring first in six of their last seven matches. Botafogo also won in their previous four matches on the road. We simply don't see them losing this matchup. They could force a 1-1 draw at full-time.
Our prediction for LDU Quito vs Botafogo: Under 2.5 goals.
