New Mexico United sit 5th and have won 57% of their home matches, while 23rd-placed Monterey Bay have lost 71% of their away games. The hosts average 1.64 goals and 4.79 shots on target per match at home, while the visitors score 0.86 goals and register 2.36 shots on target per match on the road. Chance quality also favors New Mexico: their home xG is 1.54, compared with Monterey Bay’s away xG of 1.11, while the visitors allow opponents chances worth 1.83 xG per match. Both teams have recorded one win, two draws and two defeats in their last five matches, so recent form gives the hosts no additional edge. Nevertheless, the clear gap between their home and away results, along with the 1.93 goals Monterey Bay concede on average away from home, makes a New Mexico win the most likely outcome.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

Both teams have scored in 62% and 64% of their matches this season, respectively, with those rates at 60% and 80% over their last five games. New Mexico United have recently averaged 1.6 goals per match, while Monterey Bay have conceded 1.4; additionally, the visitors have kept a clean sheet in only 7% of their matches this season. The visitors’ chances of scoring are boosted by the hosts conceding an average of 1.8 goals in their last five matches and allowing opponents chances worth 2.39 xG. The risk to the BTTS - Yes pick is Monterey Bay’s attack, which averages just 0.86 goals and has failed to score in 36% of matches. However, the consistent pattern of both teams scoring outweighs this concern, making BTTS - Yes the preferred pick.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

The strongest pick is Over 1.5 goals: this line was cleared in 77% of New Mexico United matches and 71% of Monterey Bay matches. The hosts create chances worth an average of 1.47 xG, while the visitors allow opponents 1.83 xG and concede an average of 1.93 goals, which bodes well for New Mexico to score. Monterey Bay score only 0.86 goals per match, but New Mexico concede an average of 1.54, so an away goal is also a realistic prospect. The projected total of 2.80 goals gives Over 1.5 a clearer edge than Over 2.5, which landed in 54% and 50% of these teams’ matches, respectively.

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

The most likely scenario is for New Mexico United to take the lead at the break and hold on to it until full time. The hosts led at half-time in 31% of their matches, while Monterey Bay went into the break trailing in 50%; the visitors concede an average of 0.93 goals in the first half, compared with 0.23 conceded by New Mexico. The hosts’ attacking advantage also supports a home win: their average xG is 1.47, against 1.11 for the visitors, while Monterey Bay concede an average of 1.93 goals per match. A draw at half-time remains a significant alternative, having occurred in 62% of New Mexico’s matches and 50% of Monterey Bay’s. However, 1/1 has the strongest overall case, although confidence is tempered by the fact that the hosts concede an average of 1.31 goals after the break.
