On Sunday Apr 24th, Atlético GO hosts Botafogo in a Serie A match. Weather on match day is looking like a cloudy but warm day with daytime temperatures of 26 degrees, a perfect day for football. Atlético GO is fresh off their 0-4 loss against Bragantino. Oliveira dos Santos struck first for Bragantino in the 19th minute on a feed from Jadson, then N. Bernardo de Souza added another in the 26th minute In the end, Atlético GO couldn’t muster any offence and Bragantino ran away with the shutout win. They’re hoping to improve on their recent performance, having lost 1 of their last 10, while in their last match, Botafogo recorded a 3-1 win against Ceará. João Victor scored the first goal for Botafogo in the 17th minute, then Vinicius Lima tied it up for Ceará in the 43rd minute. Botafogo is looking for direction having earned 11 points in their last 10 matches.
These two teams have not yet played each other this season, so it will be interesting how the match turns out.
Botafogo is lucky enough to have a few offensive weapons, with Rafael Navarro and Diego Gonçalves each having 2 goals in their last 5. Atlético GO is glad to have Shaylon in top form. In the last five matches the midfielder has scored 4 goals.
