Botafogo, compared to their opponent's recent win, are on a troubling run, heading into this match following two back-to-back defeats to Palmeiras and Atletico Madrid. Their defensive frailties have been apparent as they have allowed goals in four consecutive matches.

This Serie A clash features attacking talents who have defined the campaigns of Vasco and Botafogo. Vasco’s attacking options, shaped by Fernando Diniz’s vision, have been bolstered by Pablo Ezequiel Vegetti Pfaffen, the team’s top scorer, and Lucas Piton, both of whom have contributed crucial goals and assists. Pfaffen has already scored eight goals in Serie A this season, while Piton remains their top assist provider in the competition with three. Vasco have also relied on Nuno Moreira, Rayan Vitor Simplicio Rocha and Philippe Coutinho to energize their attack through key shots and passes.

Meanwhile, Botafogo’s offensive unit, crafted under Davide Ancelotti’s leadership, has leaned on Igor Jesus, their main scorer, and Artur, as they continue to drive the team’s attacking efforts forward. In Serie A, Jesus has been Botafogo’s standout scorer with three goals, with Artur leading their creative tally in the league with three assists. Adding further support are Jefferson Savarino, Marlon Freitas and Alex Telles, who have combined to deliver key goals and assists for the team.
