Botafogo lineup against São Paulo
Montoro did not enter Vasco because of a gastrointestinal problem with vomiting. The tendency is to be recovered for the duel in the state capital. About Danilo, the steering wheel suffered muscle problem on September 5 and was without training until the 10th. Now, there is a great expectation of coach Davide Ancelotti to climb shirt 35 again.
Right-back Vitinho and midfielder Savarino, reserves against Vasco due to a short time of rest after games by the national teams of Brazil and Venezuela, should resume place among the holders.
Who should miss the cast is striker Artur, who left the bench against Vasco and played only 16 minutes, being replaced by a muscle problem in the right thigh.
Probable Botafogo lineup: Grandchild; Vitinho, Kaio Pantaleão, Barboza, Alex Telles; NEWTON, Danilo (Marlon Freitas), Savarino; Santiago Rodríguez, Montoro (Jeffinho) and Arthur Cabral. Technical: Davide Ancelotti.
