Fortune tellers
Daniel Fernandes (botafogo sector manager): “Botafogo shouldn’t have an easy life, because they are still looking for their ideal form and will have an alternative team. However, I believe that Glorioso is capable of beating Bangu.”
Guess: Botafogo 2×1 Bangu
Alexandre Rodrigues (botafogo sector manager): “After overcoming the nervousness of the debut, due to everything that happened last year, Botafogo arrives lighter at the match against Bangu. Even the technical difference and the good performance of the Bianconeri against the opponent can influence the result”.
Guess: Botafogo 3×0 Bangu
Fernando Asvolinsque (botafogo sector manager): “Despite winning the first leg of Rio de Janeiro, Botafogo did not convince, but they were effective in beating Madureira. For this match, Tiago Nunes must field a team with many reserves, as he said in the press conference. Bearing in mind this, I believe that the team that enters the field will be very uneven. Despite this, I believe that Botafogo will win.”
Guess: Botafogo 1×0 Bangu
