General match analysis
New Mexico United enter this match on a run of 5 consecutive wins, scoring 14 goals in the process, while Tulsa have managed just 3 goals across their last five fixtures. The hosts are particularly dangerous at home: they win 63% of matches, average 1.63 goals scored and register 13 shots per game, 5 of which are on target. Tulsa average 1.29 goals away from home, fail to score in 29% of their away outings and lose 29% of matches, indicating greater risk on their side. However, the visitors have tightened up defensively, conceding just 1 goal in their last five games, so their chances of securing a draw remain significant. New Mexico’s superior current attacking form, 56% home possession and better chance-creation quality should nevertheless tilt the result in the hosts’ favour.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
The strongest signal for BTTS - No comes from New Mexico United’s season profile: only 27% of their matches featured goals from both teams, while the team kept a clean sheet in 55% of games. Tulsa have scored just 3 goals in their last five appearances, averaging 0.6 per match, and have not recorded a single Goal/Goal scenario during that run. New Mexico are also in excellent attacking form, scoring 14 goals in their last five matches, while Tulsa conceded just 1 goal over the same period, increasing the likelihood of a result with one side failing to score. Although Tulsa’s latest xG stands at 1.19, the hosts have won their last five matches and possess significantly better season-long defensive organisation than the visitors. Therefore, it is more likely that at least one team will fail to score.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
New Mexico’s season profile is clearly defensive: the team concedes just 0.64 goals per match on average and keeps a clean sheet in 55% of games. In home matches, only 18% went over the 2.5-goal line, while just 9% finished with at least four goals; on Tulsa’s side, the percentage of matches staying below 3.5 goals is also 71%. Tulsa have scored only 3 goals in their last five matches, averaging 0.6 per game, while conceding just 1 goal, which limits the prospect of an open game. New Mexico are in excellent scoring form, recording 2.8 goals across their last five appearances, but the visitors’ solid recent defensive record and the hosts’ low season scoring figures lower the projection to 2.00 goals. The strongest signal is therefore Under 3.5 goals, as this bet requires four goals to lose despite both teams frequently producing low-scoring results.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
The strongest HT/FT scenario is a draw at half-time followed by a New Mexico United win, as the hosts were level after 45 minutes in 7 of 11 matches, or 64% of the time. Their first-half defensive record is exceptionally solid: they concede an average of just 0.09 goals and have kept a clean sheet at the break in 91% of matches, while Tulsa have been trailing at half-time in 43% of their games. After the interval, New Mexico improves markedly, scoring an average of 0.55 goals—and as many as 1.8 per match across their last five fixtures, all of which they won. Tulsa average more shots on target over the season, 4.14 compared with 2.55, but have recently scored just 0.6 goals per game, making it difficult to expect them to preserve the result after a goalless or level first half.
