General match analysis
Nacional Asunción are favorites: they have won 65% of their home matches, while Deportivo Recoleta have lost 71% of their away games. The hosts average 1.76 goals scored and 0.65 conceded at home, whereas the visitors score 1.12 and concede as many as 1.82 goals on the road. Nacional’s edge in chance creation is reflected in their home xG of 1.40, compared with Recoleta’s away xG of 1.12; the visitors also allow opponents chances with an average xG of 1.65. Nacional are unbeaten in their last five matches, scoring 8 goals and conceding 4, while Recoleta have won just once and conceded 7. Although the hosts’ three consecutive draws increase the likelihood of a stalemate, their home form and the visitors’ poor away defensive record point to a Nacional win.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
Nacional Asunción have seen both teams score in 83% of their matches, compared with 59% for Deportivo Recoleta and a league average of 53%. The hosts score an average of 1.67 goals, while the visitors concede 1.82, clearly favoring a Nacional goal. Recoleta’s chances of scoring are supported by the fact that Nacional keep a clean sheet in only 11% of matches and allow opponents chances worth an average of 1.59 xG. Caution is warranted, however, as Recoleta failed to score in 29% of their matches and have averaged just 1.0 goals across their last five. Even so, both teams recorded BTTS in 60% of their respective last five matches, so the BTTS - Yes option has the edge.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
Nacional score an average of 1.67 goals per match, while Deportivo Recoleta concede 1.82, giving the home side a solid foundation to find the net. The visitors also have a chance to score: they average 1.12 goals, while Nacional concede 1.50, and their opponents have scored in 89% of matches. At least two goals were scored in 89% and 76% of these teams’ matches, respectively—significantly more often than at least four goals, which occurred in 33% and 41%. Nacional’s last five matches produced an average of 2.4 total goals, as did Deportivo’s, so despite a projected total of 2.90 goals, Over 1.5 goals remains the safest pick.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
A draw at half-time is the most likely outcome: Nacional were level at the break in 44% of their matches, compared with 53% for Deportivo Recoleta; in the visitors’ last five matches, the figure was 80%. Although Nacional led at the break in 3 of their last 5 matches, this occurred in only 22% of their matches over the season, so I rate an early lead for the home side slightly below a draw. After half-time, the advantage shifts in their favor: Nacional average 1.11 goals after the break, while Deportivo concede 1.24. Nacional won the second half in 56% of their matches, while Deportivo lost it in 53%, supporting the scenario of the match being decided after the interval. The home side’s average of 1.67 goals scored against the visitors’ 1.12 also points to a full-time win for Nacional, so my HT/FT pick is a draw at half-time and a Nacional win at full-time.
