Defensor Sporting sit 8th and win only 11% of away fixtures, averaging 0.67 goals scored and 1.00 conceded per away match, and failing to score in 44% of away games. Racing creates more quality chances: at home they average 12.44 shots (4.78 on target) with xG 1.57 and a 13% conversion rate, while Defensor average 9.67 shots (2.78 on target) with xG 1.21 and 7% conversion. In the last 5 matches Racing have 1.6 pts with a 2-2-1 record, scoring 3 and conceding 3, whereas Defensor have only 0.8 pts with a 1-1-3 record, scoring 4 and conceding 7. Considering Racing’s 0% of matches without a goal, the xG advantage (1.57 vs 1.21), higher conversion (13% vs 7%) and superior clean sheet rate (44% vs 11%), I predict a home win.
