Guarani vs. Botafogo: alignments and incidents
THE MATCH PREVIEW
Botafogo seeks to seal its ticket to the next phase. Fogão arrives in Asunción with the advantage on the aggregate score, after beating the Paraguayan team 2-1 in the first leg, which they managed to come from behind at the last minute thanks to a penalty from their scorer Tiquinho Soares.
Those led by coach Bruno Lage come from a goalless draw against Cruzeiro at the Mineirão stadium and are leaders of the Brazilian league with 44 units, which they have dominated from the beginning and in which they lead their escort, Flamengo, by 13 points. .

The bad news for the Brazilian team is that they will not be able to count on Soarez, the team’s star, who suffered an injury to his left knee. The challenge for coach Lage will be to find a replacement up front, where the natural substitute is striker Janderson.
The other option that the Portuguese coach can evaluate is to play with a false nine, as he did against Cruzeiro when Soarez left the field due to injury, and Lucas Fernandes entered in his place, who occupied a space in midfield.
In front they will have a Paraguayan team that in the first leg turned out to be more complicated than they imagined. And it is that Guaraní comes from losing 5-3 to Olimpia on the fifth day of the Paraguayan Clausura Tournament, in a vibrant match.
