Cuiaba Vs Botafogo Tips and Prediction

With four points in their previous three Serie A games under Antonio Oliveira, the Mato Grosso-based team is once again in contention to remain in the Brazilian top division beyond this season.

They broke a five-match losing streak away from home in their first road game of July, scoring multiple goals for the first time all season as the visitors.

This club has reverted to playing it safe, putting the defense first, and not taking many opportunities, much like in their maiden Serie A season a year ago.

They had some success with that strategy last season, but they have scored the fewest goals in league play this year due to their inability to find enough quality in the attacking third .

Especially at Arena Pantanal, where they have let up one goal or fewer in each of their domestic games in 2022, this team is compact, hard-nosed, and does not give you much time on the ball.

Although their conservative strategies have kept their games close, it seems that carrying so much pressure for so long is starting to wear them down in the final parts of a game.

Eight of their 17 league goals have been given up which is a problem Cuiaba will want to address if he is to ensure a third straight season in the top level.

Thanks to another outstanding performance away from home on Monday, Botafogo was able to put some distance between themselves and the bottom-half of the table; they are now five points above it.

That direction is currently unknown, but based on their current on-field performance, it looks that this is a team that like to defend deep and limit the space that rival players may exploit.

The team’s recent performances under manager Luis Castro appear to contrast Textor’s preferred style of play, with the American openly applauding teams that like to dominate their opponents with possession and pace.

They haven’t been particularly good at keeping possession recently, with less than 40% in each of their past five games in all competitions, yet they still managed to win three times.

They have demonstrated great poise and dedication to holding onto a lead, failing to give one up when they score first in five of their previous six games across all competitions.

Conclusion

Cuiaba has performed admirably in the bulk of their confrontations, competing and remaining, but they continuously fail to uphold quality and discipline, which we believe will tilt the scales in the visitors’ favor.
