APWin experts have analysed the main betting markets and selected high-value bets.

👉 Our prediction is: Botafogo to win the 1st half

Botafogo has been a strong home team overall this season, and the statistics point to them being particularly quick to pounce in the opening 45 minutes. Whether that aggressive mentality is due to the energy of the home crowd or an intentional plan on the part of the manager, it has proven to be very effective.

We foresee that plan paying off once again in their match against Grêmio, so our top tip is for Botafogo to win the first half.

👉 Our prediction is: under 9.5 corners

We expect that corners will be hard to come by in the Botafogo vs Grêmio match. Neither team has been able to create too many corner opportunities this season with how they have played, and this figures to be another match with a low corner count.

So for this match, we recommend betting on under 9.5 corners, where 9 total corners or fewer between the two teams will win the bet.
