Santa Fe vs Independiente Medellín: match statistics

135%(2.24)
X35%(3.25)
230%(3.20)

Statistical analysis indicates very balanced chances for both teams. Santa Fe at home displays a high draw rate (60% Draw%), not losing any home match without scoring (0% FTS%), although their recent form is mixed (1-2-2). Independiente Medellín shows better overall form (3 wins in the last 5 matches) and a higher PPG (2.0 vs 1.0), yet their away results are more unpredictable (33% Win%, 33% Draw%, 33% Loss%). Both teams have an identical goal difference in their matches (+0 GD), and the average xG suggests a slight advantage for the hosts (1.57 vs 1.12). Considering Santa Fe's strong tendency for draws at home and the balanced disposition of both sides, a draw appears to be the most probable outcome, although the hosts' slight statistical edge in home matches gives them marginally higher chances of victory than the visitors.
