Match description

Lexington has a clear offensive advantage at home: on average 1.67 goals scored per match, 13.5 shots with 4.67 on target and xG 1.52. New Mexico as visitors score only 0.5 goals per match on average, register 9.33 shots with 3.17 on target, and their shot conversion is just 5%, with a 50% rate of away matches without scoring. Defensively both teams concede on average 1.00 goal per match, however New Mexico allows a higher average away xG against them (1.67 vs 1.17 for Lexington), suggesting more high-quality chances created against their goal. Although New Mexico has better form in the last 5 matches (10 goals and 2.6 points per match vs 9 goals and 1.6 points for Lexington), these results diverge from their away statistics. Due to the home side’s higher conversion (12% vs 5%), greater number of shots on target (4.67 vs 3.17) and lower risk of failing to score at home (17% vs 50%), I forecast a Lexington victory.
