The visitors have lower attacking potential, averaging 1.22 goals with an xG of 1.09, but General Caballero’s defense allows an average of 1.33 goals and opposition xG of 1.44. The hosts’ recent form has been defensively stronger, as they conceded only 3 goals in their last five matches and BTTS landed in 40% of cases. Therefore, the advantage for the “Yes” scenario is moderate rather than decisive. Nevertheless, Tacuary have scored in an average of one of their last five matches, while their BTTS rate over that period stands at 60%, making both teams to score the most probable outcome.

General Caballero averages 1.22 goals per match, improving to 1.60 across their last five games, while Tacuary conceded just 1.20 goals per match over the same period. The home side have been highly consistent defensively of late, conceding only 3 goals in total across five matches, or 0.60 per game. The combined xG averages of both teams point to approximately 2.44 goals, suggesting a scoreline in the two- or three-goal range rather than an open, high-scoring game with four goals. The Under 3.5 goals line is further supported by General Caballero’s data, with 67% of their matches ending with a maximum of three goals, while neither team averages even 1.3 goals per match. Therefore, Under 3.5 is the strongest pick, although the 2.5 line remains finely balanced.
