Our prediction is: Under 2.5 goals in the match
It's hard to see too many goals in this match between Itapirense and Botafogo SP given their lack of goalscoring ability.
That is why we project the total to go under 2.5 goals. So if 2 or fewer goals are scored, the bet wins.
Our prediction is: Itapirense to score first
It will be a tough task for Itapirense to topple Botafogo SP, who have been a better side overall this season. But with the support of the home crowd will be a huge help to Itapirense in their bid to cause an upset.
While the odds of an outright win are not great, we recommend betting on Itapirense to score first as a decent alternative. There is still good value in those odds, and with Itapirense's attacking talent, they have more than a puncher's chance of paying off that bet.
