General match analysis

Mineros de Zacatecas remain unbeaten, but they have drawn four of their last five matches, while their average of 1.4 points per game is well below Venados’ 2.2. At home, the hosts score an average of 3 goals and register 5 shots on target per match, but they also concede 2 goals and have yet to keep a clean sheet. Venados are more effective at creating chances away from home, averaging 15 shots and 7 on target compared with Mineros’ 10 and 5, while their xG stands at 1.81 against 1.32 for their opponents. On the other hand, the visitors drew their only away match so far and scored just 1 goal on average, despite conceding only 1. The combination of Mineros’ attacking potential, Venados’ superior recent form and the draw-oriented trends of both sides points to a share of the points as the most likely outcome.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

The BTTS - Yes pick is supported by the excellent current consistency of both teams: Mineros have recorded BTTS in 100% of their last 5 matches, while Venados have done so in 80%. During this period, the hosts have averaged 2.0 goals scored and 1.6 conceded, whereas the visitors have scored 2.2 goals and conceded 1.2. Venados have failed to keep a clean sheet in every match this season, while Mineros have also scored in every game, significantly strengthening the hosts’ scoring prospects. Offensively, Mineros create an average xG of 2.60, compared with 1.81 for Venados, while the two defences allow xG figures of 1.28 and 1.85 respectively. Although the league BTTS average stands at just 43%, the teams’ current scoring and defensive profiles clearly support a goal from both sides.

Over/Under - goals analysis

Mineros have averaged 2.0 goals over their last five matches, while Venados have averaged 2.2, with both teams conceding 1.6 and 1.2 goals per game, respectively. During these runs, Mineros matches went Over 2.5 goals in 60% of cases, while Venados matches did so in 80%; both teams scored in as many as 100% and 80% of those games, respectively. Venados are generating a high 2.16 xG per game in their recent form, while Mineros allow opponents 1.69 xG, which clearly supports the prospect of away goals. The hosts average 23.5 shots and 10.5 shots on target per game, so even with a more conservative projection of 3.20 total goals, the safest pick remains Over 1.5.

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

Mineros have a clearer first-half profile: in their last five matches, they were leading at the break in 60% of cases, scoring an average of 0.8 goals and conceding just 0.2, while Venados averaged 0.4 goals before half-time and were trailing at the break in 40% of matches. The hosts also create more chances, averaging 23.5 shots and 10.5 on target, compared with 15 and 7 for Venados, while their average xG stands at 2.60 versus 1.81. After the interval, however, the advantage shifts to the visitors: across their last five matches, Venados averaged 1.8 goals in the second half and conceded 0.6, whereas Mineros scored 1.2 and allowed 1.4. Recent full-time results also support the possibility of a turnaround, as Venados averaged 2.2 points per match over their last five league fixtures compared with 1.4 for Mineros, while the hosts drew as many as 4 of their 5 matches. The most likely scenario is therefore one in which Mineros take a narrow lead at half-time, but Venados complete a turnaround after the break and the match ends in a draw.
