Goal Statistics

Flamengo have been steady in attack of late, scoring in 5 consecutive Serie A games. Their PG of 1.7 against Botafogo on Saturday suggests they're likely to extend that run.

Flamengo's defensive record is to be admired, J. Nunes Alves Sousa Jardim's men having conceded 1 or less in 5 consecutive Serie A outings. An average PG rating of 1.1 for Botafogo makes sense in this context.
