Botafogo vs Mirassol: Where to Watch, Lineups, Absences, Suspensions, and Refereeing

Botafogo looks to recover after being eliminated from the Copa do Brasil and a poor showing against São Paulo, facing the sensation Mirassol this Wednesday (9/17) at 7:30 pm, at Nilton Santos Stadium in a postponed match of the 12th round of the Brazilian Championship. With a win, Glorioso enters the top four. The game was originally scheduled for June but was postponed due to Botafogo’s participation in the Super World Club. After this Wednesday, Glorioso has only one more postponed match against Grêmio next Wednesday in Porto Alegre. To face Mirassol, coach Davide Ancelotti will continue without Artur and Arthur Cabral due to injuries, and goalkeeper Neto, who suffered a total rupture in his right thigh and will be out until 2026 after surgery. However, Davide is likely to bring back key players who were rested against São Paulo like Marlon Freitas, Alexander Barboza, and Alex Telles. Montoro and Santi Rodríguez may also return to the starting lineup after recovering from minor illnesses.
