Bitesize Prediction: Paysandu vs Botafogo SP – 14/06/25

Competition: Serie B

Market: Both teams to score – No

Odds: 7/10 @ 1xBet

Two camps who find themselves scrapping it out in the relegation zone, Paysandu will welcome Botafogo SP to Para in the early hours of Saturday.

Starting with the hosts, enduring what has been a woeful rut since opening up the 2025, it is no surprise that Paysandu are pencilled in as a landslide relegation candidate this season. Falling to consecutive 1-0 losses against Cuiaba and Criciuma since getting June underway, Claudinei Oliveira’s side have remarkably put just four points on the board from any of their first 11 Serie B appearances. Sat rock-bottom of the table, the Para-based outfit are also still waiting for a maiden second-tier victory. Watching their Copa do Brasil adventure come to a thumping end of May 21st as they slumped to a 4-0 drumming at the hands of Bahia, the former Guarani boss has seen his downbeat squad lose all of their last four matchups across all formats by an aggregate score of 9-1. Already sat six points adrift of Serie B safety, it should also be highlighted that Paysandu have bagged just a single strike in any of their previous five matchups.

As for the visitors, while Botafogo might have signed off May with a much-welcomed boost, Marcio Zanardi’s men remain at the heart of their own Serie B relegation scrap. Last seen settling for a 0-0 stalemate at home against Coritiba, the Panthers have mustered just a sole win from any of their previous five appearances. Getting the 2025 campaign underway with a 1-0 defeat against America MG on April 5th, Saturday’s guests have shown some extended issues at both ends of the pitch. Falling to consecutive 3-0 drumming against Operario and Athletic Club last month, Botafogo have drawn a blank in six of their first 11 Serie B showdowns. Likewise, along with ing just a pair of victories so far this season, Zanardi’s camp have also mustered just a sole win outside of Sao Paulo so far this calendar year. Two camps who find themselves scrapping it out in the drop zone, we could be set for a cagey affair this weekend.
