Avaí and Botafogo SP meet in Serie B, with the hosts sitting 17th and needing points to escape the relegation zone, while the visitors are 13th and are on a run of steadily improving results. Avaí have just won at home 2-1 and 1-0 in their previous two matches, but before that they lost 0-3 and 0-1, so the overall picture is still unsettled. Botafogo SP, meanwhile, are on a winning run, with their last two matches both 1-0 victories, and their defence looks clearly more settled. This looks like a game where neither side will rush to open up early. Avaí must be wary of Botafogo SP's counter-attacks, as the visitors play compactly and often score in the 46-60 minute period, while Avaí themselves concede a lot late in games. If the hosts cannot dominate enough possession, the game could end in a share of the points, a result the visitors would accept.
