América Mineiro Botafogo betting prediction
 América MG |
|  Botafogo |
Betting suggestion:
This confrontation tends to be busy, as América Mineiro likes to play offensive in its stadium, but this will certainly leave spaces in the defense for Botafogo to take advantage. América Mineiro has scored 5 goals in its 2 Serie A games, while Botafogo has conceded goals in its 2 away matches, but has created a good number of chances, lacking in the finalization. Given these factors, we believe in a game with good offensive volume from both sides and some goals scored.

Preview
América Mineiro and Botafogo meet at Estádio Raimundo Sampaio, in a match for the 6th round of the Serie A. The recent head‑to‑head record favours the away team, since they have a record of 2 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss in the last 4 matches. The last head‑to‑head between these two teams was played on 25‑09‑2016, and ended in a (1‑0) win by América Mineiro. In this match the home advantage may play an important role, as both teams present significant differences between home and away performances.
Analysis América MG
The home team is currently in the 10th position of the league, with 7 points won, after 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Vasco da Gama, by (4‑1). In the last match, they tied in an away match against Ceará, by (2‑2). This is a team that is often stronger at home, with the help of its supporters, so they usually make good use of the home advantage, since in the last 30 matches they register 4 wins, 7 draws and 4 losses in away matches; against 11 wins, 1 draw and 3 losses at their stadium. In the last 10 home matches América Mineiro has won 7 and lost 3. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded goals in 4 of the last 5 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 4 of the last 5 matches for this competition. They have conceded the first goal in 5 of their 15 matches, and have never been able to turn the score around. In the last 20 home matches for all competitions there is 1 period that stands out: they have conceded 5 of their 14 goals between minutes (76'‑90').
América Mineiro is campaigning above the expected in the Brazilian Championship, but comes from 2 games without a win and wants to find the way to victories to keep safe distance from the relegation zone, since being in the first division is its main goal this season. The team has an efficient attack that scored 8 goals and is the third best in the competition, while the defense, in turn, suffered 9 goals and is the third most leaked, demonstrating the great imbalance between the 2 sectors, something that needs to be corrected for the rest of the competition. Playing at home, such as this Sunday's game, América Mineiro won the 2 games played in Serie A, scoring 5 goals and conceding only 1, being a team that likes to impose its game and creates a good number of opportunities in this type of situation. For the confrontation with Botafogo, coach Enderson Moreira will not be able to count on defender Rafal Lima due to injury.

Analysis Botafogo
The away team is currently in the 6th position of the league, with 8 points won, after 2 wins, 2 draws and 1 loss. In the penultimate match, they lost in an away match against Cruzeiro, by (1‑0). In the last match, they won in a home match against Fluminense, by (2‑1). This is a team that usually gets better results in away matches than at home, since in the last 30 matches they register 6 wins, 3 draws and 6 losses in away matches, with 15 goals scored and 19 conceded; against 5 wins, 5 draws and 5 losses at their stadium, with 19 goals scored and 19 conceded. In the last 10 away matches Botafogo has won 5, tied 2 and lost 3. Defensive consistency hasn’t been their best feature, as they have conceded at least one goal in each of the last 5 matches, but their offense has scored consistently, as they have scored goals in 4 of the last 5 matches for this competition. In their away matches there is a tendency for few goals, since 26 of the last 38 matches have ended with Under 2,5 goals. In 15 matches, they have conceded the first goal 7 times and have only turned the score around in 1.
Botafogo has been performing well at the start of the Brazilian Championship, has won 2 of its last 3 matches and is looking for another win to try to get to the top of the standings. The team has a reasonable attack that scored 6 goals, being the ninth best of the competition and scored goals in 4 of the 5 rounds it played, while the defense conceded 5 goals and is the sixth less leaked, but it is worth mentioning that it conceded goals in all the clashes. Playing away from home, such as this Sunday's game, Botafogo adds 1 draw and 1 loss, was worse than the opponent in the 2 clashes and needs more solidity in this type of situation, since it has created good opportunities but fails in the finalization. For the game against América Mineiro, coach Alberto Valentim will not be able to count on goalkeeper Gatito Fernández and midfielder Leonardo Valencia, both for injury.
