Match analysis

Novorizontino have scored 12 goals across four straight wins, and that run sits behind Superior's Over 1.5 pick for Botafogo SP vs Novorizontino in Brazil's Serie B on 9 September, priced at 1.42 and rated 67 percent. Botafogo's defence, 15th and fighting relegation, is not built to contain that kind of form.

Novorizontino have scored 12 goals in their last five games

That run has come with Novorizontino sitting a comfortable third, no real pressure attached, while Botafogo sit 15th with 12 games left in a relegation fight they are yet to escape. The two teams average a combined 3.0 goals a game, and their last meeting in May, a tight 1-0 for Novorizontino, is the outlier against a pairing that otherwise trends towards goals.

Botafogo have managed only three goals in five matches

The way this loses is a total of one goal or fewer, and Botafogo's own attack, the weaker side of this fixture at 0.6 goals a game, is the one that could make it happen. A backs-to-the-wall performance from a relegation-threatened home side, similar to May's 1-0, would be enough to keep this under, even against a Novorizontino side scoring at will elsewhere.
