The second half is more active for the visitors — El Nacional average 1.0 second-half goals (scored_2hg_avg_away = 1.0; last5_scored_2hg_avg_overall_away = 0.8), but they concede a high volume of quality chances: xG against 3.09 versus 1.74 for the hosts (xg_against_avg_away = 3.09; xg_against_avg_home = 1.74).

Considering the hosts' first-half advantage and the visitors’ defensive risk, the most likely scenario is Santo Domingo leading at Half-Time and holding the win through Full-Time; therefore the recommendation is HT/FT 1/1.
