View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

BTTS landed in 77% of Orange County SC’s matches, and the team failed to score in just 8% of them, which points to an away goal. El Paso’s season BTTS rate is 43%, but both teams scored in each of its last 5 matches. The hosts have recently averaged 2.2 goals per game, while Orange County have conceded 2.2, so an El Paso goal also looks likely. Caution is warranted given the visitors’ attacking form: they have averaged just 0.6 goals over their last 5 matches, while El Paso have kept a clean sheet in 36% of their league games this season. Despite that risk, the visitors’ season scoring record and the hosts’ recent results give a slight edge to BTTS - Yes.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

At least 2 goals were scored in 71% of El Paso’s matches and 85% of Orange County’s, supporting Over 1.5 goals. The visitors concede an average of 1.69 goals per match and keep a clean sheet in only 15% of games, giving the hosts a clear chance to score. Orange County, meanwhile, score an average of 1.62 goals, while El Paso concede 1.43. However, the visitors’ recent dip in scoring—0.6 goals per match across their last five appearances—limits confidence in higher goal lines. A 2.75-goal forecast supports Over 1.5, while the gap between the teams at the 2.5 line—36% and 54% of matches featuring at least 3 goals—makes it a less convincing pick.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

El Paso have won 3 of their last 5 matches, scoring an average of 2.2 goals, while Orange County have lost 3 of their 5 and scored just 0.6 goals. The home side led at the break in 2 of those 5 matches and were never trailing, while the visitors went into half-time behind in 2 of 5. Over this period, El Paso averaged 1.6 first-half goals compared with Orange County’s mere 0.2, strengthening the case for an early lead. The visitors’ recent average of 2.2 goals conceded and the home side’s tally of 2.0 points per game compared with their opponents’ 0.8 also support El Paso holding on to their advantage. The risk of a draw remains significant, as Orange County have drawn 46% of their matches this season; however, the teams’ current form most strongly points to El Paso leading at the break and winning at full time (HT/FT: 1/1).
