Santos - Botafogo RJ We are already at the beginning of the Brazilian Championship and yet Santos is 12 points away from the top and for the time being it shows that it cannot.
Santos drew 0-0 with Internacional on Sunday, having an unfair dismissal of Juan. The distance from the top to -12 is due to the fact that he gave importance to the Libertadores Cup. In these 6 games they scored only 4 times and this is due to the fact that his 2 players Neymar and Ganso are missing.
Botafogo in the derby with Fluminense were tied at 1-1 with the two teams having few chances. Seedorf has not yet made his debut, nor will he, according to the latest news.
Prehistory between the 2 groups is
| 19/10/2011 | Santos | 2-0 | Botafogo RJ |
| 28/05/2011 | Botafogo RJ | 1-0 | Santos |
| 10/09/2010 | Santos | 0-1 | Botafogo RJ |
Santos' absences definitely affect her in the offensive line and this will happen today as well. Botafogo on the other hand will chase not to lose so Under 2.5 has value
