• Struggling visitors scored in 5 straight road trips...
  

• And conceded 11 in 3

• Back +2.5 Goals

Avai v Botafogo SP
Wednesday 01:00

In China yesterday, Shanghai Shenhua went to Wuhan and won 2-0 to land our Win to Nil bet.

We're back in Brazil today for the Serie B game between 11th-placed Avai and 17th-placed Botafogo. The market expects a tight affair, but we think there's half a chance of a few goals...

Botafogo are W2-D1-L5 on the road this season, but they have scored on each of their last five road trips. Their real problem is at the other end, where they have conceded 19 in eight, including 11 in the most recent three. Five of the last six have delivered Over 2.5 Goals in total.

Avai's home matches haven't generally been high scoring, but both teams have scored in 3/5 hosting bottom-half teams. Over 2.5 Goals landed in two of those matches and, with the strong support on Botafogo's side, we'll take a punt on tonight's game being a high scorer.
