Match Preview

The model favours Botafogo to win against Chapecoense with a projected scoreline of 2-1. Botafogo currently sits in 12th place in the Serie A standings, having collected 35 points from 28 matches. Their season has been a mixed bag, with 9 wins, 8 draws, and 11 losses. Key to their performance is their goal difference of -4, indicating they have struggled defensively, conceding 45 goals while scoring 41. However, they have shown glimpses of potential, particularly in their attacking play. On the other hand, Chapecoense finds itself at the bottom of the table in 20th position, with only 18 points from 27 matches. Their record of 3 wins, 9 draws, and 15 losses highlights their ongoing struggles this season. With a goal difference of -24, they have conceded 53 goals while scoring just 29, reflecting significant defensive weaknesses. Their recent form shows only one win in their last five matches, which compounds their challenges as they look to climb out of the relegation zone. According to the model, Botafogo has a higher win probability, which contributes to the projected score of 2-1. One key market stat to note is the likelihood of Botafogo securing the three points at home. However, a potential caveat is that if Chapecoense can tighten their defense and capitalize on any mistakes from Botafogo, they could make this match more competitive than expected. The full method used to reach this prediction is outlined in the "How We Reached This Prediction" section. The Daily Punt Analysis Team employs an in-house model that evaluates fixtures through expected goals and actual results throughout the season.

The Daily Punt Analysis Team

Data-driven football predictions and betting tips

This forecast was built by the The Daily Punt Analysis Team using our in-house statistical model. We feed the model two layers of data for every fixture: each team's recent expected goals (xG and xGA) and their actual goals scored and conceded, split by home and away venue. The numbers run through a Poisson distribution that produces a probability for every possible scoreline, which we then convert into fair odds for the 1X2, correct score, BTTS, and over/under markets.

Before publishing, we cross-check our fair odds against the prices the major bookmakers are offering. Where a bookmaker is paying out more than our model says is mathematically fair, we flag that market as a value bet on this page.
