Defensa y Justicia vs Botafogo Predictions and Free Betting Tips from expert tipsters when they go head-to-head in the Copa Sudamericana on Wednesday, 30 August 2023.
Defensa y Justicia are set to host Botafogo in the second leg of their Copa Sudamericana quarterfinal tie at Estadio Florencio Sola. Defensa y Justicia drew 1-1 in the first leg away from home, which looks to be an impressive outcome for them. They will now strive to emulate a strong showing at home, where they have been good for some time now.
After failing to establish an edge at home, Botafogo will attempt to recreate a better performance away from home given their strong domestic record.
Following the reverse fixture, this will be the fourth time both sides will meet each other. As previously reported, Botafogo drew 1-1 at home in the first leg last week.
Botafogo won the other two meetings between the two teams.
We are counting on Defensa y Justicia to pull off a win here. They have an excellent home record heading into this one. Ten of their last thirteen home matches have ended in victories, including the four in this tournament this season.
On the other side, Botafogo’s recent record on the road is far from ideal. They haven’t won any of their past four away matches.
We don’t expect a flurry of goals in this match. Defensa’s past three home matches have included three clean sheets and two under 2.5 goal totals. Also, Botafogo have failed to score a single goal in their past three away matches.
In addition, two of the three h2h meetings between these two have had under 2.5 goals. By the looks of things, a low-scoring affair is expected this time out.
Defensa y Justicia have an excellent home record heading into the match. They have won ten of their past thirteen home matches. Furthermore, Botafogo has underperformed on the road in a handful of recent matches.
A victory for Defensa y Justicia at 2.50 odds will be our main betting pick here considering all the observations.
For the second tip, under 2.5 goals at 1.61 odds seems very promising. Considering both teams recent goal involvement in their matches and their past results.
