The match between Botafogo and Magallanes, at 21:00 this Thursday, at the Nilton Santos, can guarantee the Alvinegra classification at the second stage of the Sudamericana. It also marks the farewell of defender Joel Carli, who is retiring, and could also be Portuguese Luís Castro’s last game in charge. Therefore, there are plenty of reasons to heat up the comparison.
Glorious must have at least the same goal difference as LDU to go straight through without making the playoffs against a third-place Libertadores team. That is, if the Ecuadorians score 3-0 at César Vallejo, in Quito, the team from Rio de Janeiro will also have to score. Both have eight points won and are the only clubs reaching the last round with a chance.
HOW TO GET BOTAFOGO
While awaiting the farewell of their coach, Botafogo have the absence of left-back Marçal and midfielders Gabriel Pires and Lucas Fernandes. There may be variations between mounts, depending on rotation due to excessive wear. Di Placido and Rafael and Luís Henrique and Victor Sá are the protagonists of the main disputes for the position. The crowd bought about 30,000 tickets in advance.
HOW DOES MAGALLANES ARRIVE?
Eliminated, the Chilean team has given tickets to their fans and arrives only to meet the schedule. In the first leg, at the beginning of April, Canales and Contreras scored the goals to make it 2-2 against Glorioso. However, Magallanes has not won in nine games.
