Fortaleza go head-to-head with Botafogo in the Serie A of Brazil on August 9, with a 23:30 kickoff in UTC.
As Fortaleza and Botafogo meet again, the memory of Fortaleza's 2-0 win in their Serie A encounter from a year ago still lingers. After a setback against Gremio last Tuesday, Fortaleza are eager to get back on track in this match. Their upcoming schedule leading up to Botafogo features Corinthians in Serie A, a fixture that is likely to influence their form and fitness ahead of their clash with Botafogo. If they aim to regain control of matches, defensive adjustments will be necessary, given that their inability to keep a clean sheet has been evident, as they have struggled to keep opponents from scoring, conceding in their last eleven matches.
Botafogo, compared to their opponent's recent loss, enter the match on a positive note, having secured a victory over RB Bragantino in their last outing, extending their unbeaten streak to five matches. They have several key matches to navigate before facing Fortaleza though, including RB Bragantino in National Cup and Cruzeiro in Serie A, matches that could play a role in shaping their form and readiness for Fortaleza.
This Serie A match offers a platform for Fortaleza and Botafogo’s goal-scorers to step up and leave their mark on the contest. Fortaleza’s Juan Lucero and top finisher Deyverson have played important roles in ensuring their attack, shaped by Renato Paiva’s vision, remains effective. Lucero has already scored three goals in Serie A this season, with Marinho topping their assist tally in the competition with two. Fortaleza’s offense has also been strengthened by Lopes Breno, Tomas Pochettino and Yago Pikachu, who have provided crucial contributions in the final third.
Meanwhile, Botafogo’s leading scorer Igor Jesus and Artur have played significant roles in the team’s attack, carefully orchestrated by Davide Ancelotti, each providing decisive moments in their offensive play. Jesus has emerged as Botafogo’s leading scorer in Serie A this season, netting three goals, while Artur has been their leading creator in the competition with three assists. Adding further support are Marlon Freitas, Jefferson Savarino and Cuiabano, who have combined to deliver key goals and assists for the team.
