Remo welcome Botafogo RJ to the Estádio Evandro Almeida with both clubs stuck in miserable patches of form. Remo sit second-bottom of the table with just 26 points from 32 games, while Botafogo, despite carrying far bigger names on the team sheet, have slipped to 11th and look nothing like a side built for the top half. The interesting wrinkle here is the form overlap: neither team has won in regulation across their last four outings combined, making this fixture a genuine coin-flip between two teams low on confidence rather than a case of quality separating them on paper.

Watch Hakim Ziyech for Botafogo, he’s produced 12 shots across his last five appearances, comfortably the highest shot volume in the squad, and remains the one player capable of unlocking a stubborn Remo backline on his own. For the hosts, Jandir Breno Souza Silva is the lone forward who’s actually found the net recently and carries most of Remo’s attacking threat up top. Between the posts, Ivan looks set to continue in goal for Remo after collecting saves across his recent minutes, while Gabriel Batista, with 11 saves in his last four games, has been the busier and more reliable of Botafogo’s two keepers.

Hot stat: Remo have failed to win any of their last four matches in the last 30 days, three of those ending level, and they’ve scored just two goals combined across their last five fixtures, a sign of how blunt this attack has become at the wrong end of the table.

Remo vs Botafogo RJ prediction

We lean toward Botafogo Double Chance here. They remain the higher-quality squad even in a rough patch, and Remo’s home form hasn’t been enough to lift them off the relegation zone all season. The draw odds sitting around 3.40 reflect how tight the bookmakers see this, but Botafogo’s squad depth, Telles, Ziyech, Cabral, Soares, should eventually tell against a Remo side averaging under one goal a game of late.

Fouls and cards paint a rougher Remo side: 52 fouls and 10 yellows in their last five matches compares to Botafogo’s 46 fouls and just 5 yellows over the same stretch. That discipline gap suggests Remo will concede more free kicks in dangerous areas, which combined with their leaky defense (conceding 51 goals this season, worst goal difference in the division at -16) points toward a cagey, stop-start game rather than an open one. Pass accuracy sits close between the sides, roughly 84% for Remo against 86% for Botafogo, so neither team should dominate territory comfortably.

Team Analysis

Remo’s last five results read loss, draw, draw, draw, loss, a run that includes a 0-1 defeat to Cruzeiro, a 1-1 draw with Bragantino, a goalless stalemate with Vasco, another 1-1 with Gremio, and a 1-2 loss to Santos. The common thread is a toothless attack, scoring just four goals across those five matches while conceding in every outing bar one. In our preview of Cruzeiro vs Remo we backed the home side to win and cover a -1.5 handicap with goals going over 2.5, and the eventual 0-1 scoreline went against the goals line but the loss itself confirmed Remo’s struggles in front of net stretching into this fixture.

Botafogo’s recent form is also shaky: a 0-3 loss to Internacional, a 1-0 win over Chapecoense, a 1-1 draw with Coritiba, a 1-2 defeat to Vasco, and a 0-2 loss to Mirassol. Only one win from five, with three losses mixed in, shows a team that has lost its early-season bite despite the individual talent on the roster. In our preview of Internacional vs Botafogo RJ we called for Internacional to avoid defeat and the goals to stay under 2.5, and the 0-3 final score proved the under-goals portion wrong while still landing the double chance call for the hosts.

Pre-game odds and win probability: Botafogo RJ the favourite

• Moneyline Remo 2.50 | Botafogo RJ 2.62
• Draw 3.40

The market barely separates the two sides, with Botafogo priced as marginal favourites despite sitting eight places below Remo’s rivals on quality rankings alone. That narrow gap matches what the recent form tables show: two teams who have struggled to win games regardless of opponent. We predict the value sits with Botafogo avoiding defeat rather than backing them outright, given how often Remo’s draws have come against mid-table opposition rather than genuine quality sides.

Possible Starting Lineups

Remo possible starting eleven

Carpini sticks with his usual 4-2-3-1, leaning on Ze Ricardo and Patrick Bezerra do Nascimento to shield a back four that’s conceded far too freely this season. Gabriel Taliari, with two assists from three recent appearances, is the creative spark behind lone striker Jandir Breno Souza Silva, who remains Remo’s only forward to find the net lately.

Botafogo RJ possible starting eleven

Tite also favours a 4-2-3-1, with Allan and Danilo providing the defensive screen that frees Ziyech to roam behind Tiquinho Soares. Alex Telles adds attacking weight from left-back, having already chipped in with a goal and a scored free kick in his last five games, making him one to watch on set pieces.

TipsGG Match Prediction

We predict a tight, low-event game in Belem. Remo’s inability to win in the last month, combined with the worst goal difference in the division, makes them hard to trust at home against a squad with more individual quality in Telles, Ziyech and Soares. Perhaps the smartest route is Botafogo Double Chance paired with Under 2.5 goals, reflecting both sides’ recent scoring droughts, four combined goals for Remo and three for Botafogo across their last five games each. To be hones, a draw wouldn’t surprise us given how even the market has priced this one, but we lean toward Botafogo edging it or at worst sharing the points.
