Match description

CD Nacional is the clear favorite: they sit 14th in the table while AVS are 18th, and the visitors have no away wins (0) and only 1 win all season. At home Nacional averages 1.33 goals per game, records 4.13 shots on target and has a shot conversion of about 11%, whereas AVS away average is only 0.67 goals per game, 2.6 shots on target and a 6% conversion; the visitors fail to score in 60% of away matches versus 33% for the hosts. Defensively the home side hold a clear advantage: Nacional concede 1.4 goals at home with average xG against 1.62, while AVS concede 2.6 on the road with xG against 1.81; in the last 5 matches the hosts have conceded 3 goals and the visitors 7. Additionally Nacional have 3 wins in their last 5 and average 1.8 points per game in that period, while AVS have not won in this cycle and average 0.8 points per game, confirming the trend of better home results. Considering the higher number of shots on target, superior home xG (1.35 vs 1.1) and AVS’s weaker defense, I predict a CD Nacional win.
