Match description

Vila Nova is the favorite based on hard numbers: the visitors have scored 12 goals this season versus Goiás’s 7 and have netted 9 goals in the last 5 matches compared to the hosts’ 3. In the last 5 fixtures Vila Nova has 3 wins and 2 draws, averaging 2.2 points per game, while Goiás has 0 wins, 1 draw and 4 losses with just 0.2 PPG. Offensive metrics also favor the visitors — Vila Nova averages 13.67 shots and 4.33 on target per match with xG 1.49 away, whereas Goiás at home records 10 shots and 2 on target with xG 1.08. Defensively Goiás looks unstable: conceded 11 goals in the last 5 matches and has 33% of home games without scoring, while Vila Nova conceded 6 in the last 5 and has 0% of away games without a goal. Considering the advantage in goal form (9 vs 3), higher xG (1.49 vs 1.08) and superior PPG (2.2 vs 0.2), I rate an away win at 65% probability.
