Internacional has already fulfilled its main task for the season and will play in the Copa Libertadores, there is not much motivation left for the last rounds. The hosts will most likely try not to lose and will pay maximum attention to defense. Botafogo is also unlikely to be able to play adventurously after the Copa Libertadores final, but it is unlikely that they will be able to count on a goal extravaganza.
We believe that the match will not be productive. Forecast - total under 2.5 goals . This bet is offered with a coefficient of 1.65
Bet on the outcome
Internacional is in great shape and is especially strong at home, and today the Colorados will most likely strive only for victory. However, there are already certain problems with motivation – there is no risk of falling out of the top six and the players have difficulties with dedication. Botafogo gave a lot of energy in the Copa Libertadores final and are unlikely to play at full strength today, but at the same time, the champion is quite capable of defending a draw in five minutes.
Bet - Draw. This bet is offered for 3.25
Bet on corners
Internacional will probably spend a lot of time attacking at home, but Botafogo are quite capable of responding, there should be a lot of corners.
Bet - total over 9.5 corners. This bet is offered for 1.79
