We started the second half of the Brasilerão Série A and Corinthians will host Botafogo on Matchday 20 in a great game, where the local team does not want to lose track of the leader, Palmeiras, and the visitors hope not to leave the international cup positions.
Corinthians is the main pursuer of Palmeiras in the fight for the title, since they are second only 4 points behind, and hopes to reduce that advantage this weekend or at least maintain it.
Botafogo won again in the last game and is 11th in the table, occupying one of the last places with the right to play the Copa Sudamericana, something that they hope not to miss.
The game between Corinthians and Botafogo for the Matchday 20 of the Brasilerão Série A will be played this Saturday, July 30, at the Itaquerão in Sao Paulo.

Why Bet on Corinthians
Corinthians is playing a great tournament, with very good games that have them halfway through the championship fighting for a title that they last won in 2017. Although they have not been a team with great offensive strength, they have followed a style of a good soccer game that allows the torcedores to get excited
They have left points along the way, losing or drawing games against teams they should have beaten, but they have recovered and emerged victorious against great rivals. In the last match, they beat Atlético Mineiro 1-2, with whom they shared second place, thanks to a brace in the last 10 minutes by Fábio Santos.
The Timão has won two in a row and is undefeated in 21 home games in all competitions: the last game they lost at home was against Santos (1-2), for the Paulista Série A1 Tournament, on February 2. In Brasilerão they have not lost at home since August 1, 2021, against Flamengo (1-3).
Why Bet on Botafogo
Botafogo got promoted this year and, after having already played half the season, they can be calm because they are not in the relegation zone, but they are not very far from it, and a losing streak can harm them, as it has already happened.
They have just come out of one of those potholes, where they lost 3 games in a row against Cuiabá (2-0), Atlético Mineiro (0-1), and Santos (2-0). On the last Matchday, they won a very difficult match against Athletico Paranaense, who were in the top four, 2-0 with goals from Erison and Jeffinho.
Portuguese Luís Castro’s team is a club of extremes: win or lose. It is the squad with the fewest draws together with Flamengo, América Mineiro, and Avaí (3) and one of the ones with the most defeats (9). In addition, it is the only team among those that are qualifying for international cups so far that have a negative goal difference (-5).
Final Betting Analysis: Corinthians vs. Botafogo
Corinthians and Botafogo will play an entertaining game, with two teams that will come out for the victory, although there is no promise of many goals. Due to the need and the illusion of a new title, we believe that the Timão will be the winner.
