  • Venue: Estadio Polideportivo Misael Delgado (Valencia)

Botafogo RJ will be aiming to complete the double over Carabobo when the two sides clash at Estadio Polideportivo Misael Delgado on Wednesday at midnight in Copa Libertadores group action.

With the group stage now at its halfway mark, Carabobo are languishing at the foot of the standings having failed to notch a win and scraping just one point from three attempts, and that lone reward came during their latest outing when they shared the spoils in a 1-1 draw with Universidad de Chile.

Botafogo RJ have stumbled out of the blocks in their opening trio of group-stage clashes, banking just a meager three points, which signals an urgent need for a spark if they are to keep their top-two hopes alive in Group A and stay on course for a spot in the knockout rounds.

Carabobo vs Botafogo RJ Betting Tips : AH1 (+1,5)

Although Botafogo managed to outlast Carabobo with two late goals in front of their home crowd for their sole victory in the group, we believe the Brazilians are in for a tough ride this time around as replicating that result on foreign soil might prove far more demanding. As they approach the closing stretch of the group campaign, Carabobo bring with them a wave of confidence after stringing together five straight matches without defeat, a sequence that also features a gritty 1-1 draw against Universidad de Chile in their most recent Libertadores clash. With form trending in the right direction and confidence on the rise, the Venezuelan side should be optimistic about getting something from this clash, especially considering Botafogo RJ’s miserable away stretch which includes eight losses in ten trips regardless of competition. To make matters worse, the Brazilian outfit have strung together a woeful run of eight straight away games without finding the net, with each of their last five road trips ending in a 1-0 defeat, so we have serious reservations about them as travellers and fully expect Carabobo to exploit Botafogo’s away-day misery and turn it into a positive outcome.

Carabobo team news

Carabobo will still have to cope without striker Loureins Martinez, who remains sidelined until September with a serious ligament injury.

Winter signing Ezequiel Neira, who suffered a concussion against Botafogo RJ in their first April meeting, could make his return against the same opponent now that he’s fully recovered.
