If you’re playing this one, here’s the unvarnished truth.
Botafogo (Fede) at 4.4 to win feels slightly short given their Jekyll-and-Hyde act in the Valhalla Cup this term. Their xG (expected goals) suggest they’re due a regression — analytics guys would fade them.
São Paulo (Bony)’s 1.4 line smells value, especially if their center forward (CF) shakes off his recent funk.
The wise guys’ll likely poke at the Draw 5.3 — these big games often play out tight, and nerves can stifle attacking flow.
