In his last commitment of a season that ends in a melancholy way, the Botafogo visit the International this Wednesday (6/12), at 9:30 pm, in Beira-Rio, for the 38th and final round of the Brazilian championshipneeding to win to try at least for a place in the group stage of the Libertadores-2024.
Fifth placed with 64 points, Glorioso hasn’t won in ten rounds and has no chance of winning the title, but needs a triumph tonight, added to a stumble by Atlético-MG (66), Flamengo (66) or Grêmio (65) – who face Bahia, São Paulo and Fluminense, respectively, all away from home -, to finish in the top four.
And the problems are many for coach Tiago Nunes, who is looking for his first victory in office. Adryelson, Gabriel Pires and Diego Costa are suspended, and Marçal is injured. On the other hand, Eduardo returns after serving suspension. Philipe Sampaio and Bastos are the candidates to form the defensive trio with Cuesta and Danilo Barbosa.
Botafogo embezzlements
Patrick de Paula (ligament injuries to the left knee), Rafael (injury to the patellar tendon of the left knee), Marshall (plantar fascia problem) e Matthew Ponte These are absences for physical reasons. Adryelson, Gabriel Pires e Diego Costa are suspended due to accumulation of yellow cards.
The opponent – International
With no pretensions in the table and already guaranteed in the Copa Sudamericana-2024, Internacional can count on the returns of Jhonny, recovered from an ankle sprain, and Pedro Henrique, who was suspended. Campanharo (suspended), Vitão, Hugo Mallo and Matheus Dias (injured) are absent.
