Match description

I back the home win. Goiás is in better form: in the last 5 matches they recorded 3 wins, 1 draw and 1 loss (avg. 2.0 points per game), while Sport Recife failed to win in that period (0 wins, 3 draws, 2 losses; avg. 0.6 points per game). In attack both teams scored 7 goals in the last 5 fixtures, but Goiás registers more on-target shots at home (3.63 vs 3.25) and has a higher conversion rate (8% vs 6%); Goiás’s home xG is 1.38 versus 1.30 xG for Sport away. Season defensive metrics favor Sport (avg. 0.63 goals conceded away), however in the last 5 matches Sport has conceded 9 goals (1.8 per game) compared to Goiás’s 6 goals (1.2 per game), and Goiás concedes 1.25 goals at home on average, indicating greater home stability. Considering the form edge, superior chance conversion and the visitors’ poorer recent defensive run, I assign Goiás a 60% chance, draw 25% and Sport 15%.
