Deportivo Cali vs Independiente Medellín: match statistics

135%(2.90)
X35%(2.78)
230%(2.41)

Statistical analysis indicates a very balanced situation for both teams, which are in poor form. Deportivo Cali has earned just 0.2 points per match in their last 5 games with a 0-1-4 record, while Independiente Medellín performs slightly better with 0.8 points per match and a 1-1-3 record. A key factor is that Medellín has not scored a goal in any away match this season (FTS% 100%), despite generating a decent xG (1.49). Deportivo Cali is playing at home, which may give a slight psychological advantage, but the lack of any home statistics in the current season makes assessment difficult. Given the poor form of both teams and the visitors' scoring problems, a draw or a narrow victory for the hosts seems most likely.
