General match analysis
Santos Laguna have won 4 of their last 5 matches, scoring 11 goals and conceding 5, while Necaxa have failed to win during that period and have conceded 11 goals. At home, the hosts win 57% of their matches and concede just 0.43 goals on average, while the visitors are yet to win away and concede an average of 2 goals. The quality of chances created also favours Santos: their home xG is 1.61, while Necaxa allow chances worth an average of 2.00 xG away from home. However, the visitors score an average of 1.17 goals on the road, and the hosts have failed to score in 43% of their home matches, so a draw remains a realistic possibility. Overall, the form and the clear defensive disparity point to a Santos Laguna win.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
Both teams scored in 75% of Santos Laguna’s matches this season and 83% of Necaxa’s, well above the league average of 61%. Neither side has kept a clean sheet, while the hosts concede an average of 1.88 goals per match compared with 2.00 for the visitors, which supports the chances of both teams finding the net. Santos average 1.72 xG and Necaxa 1.39 xG, so both teams regularly create scoring opportunities. Recent form calls for some caution: BTTS landed in only 40% of Santos’ and 60% of Necaxa’s matches across their last five games, although the visitors conceded an average of 2.2 goals during that spell. Despite this discrepancy, the season-long BTTS rates and lack of clean sheets point towards both teams to score.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
Over 1.5 goals landed in 88% of Santos Laguna’s matches and 83% of Necaxa’s, giving this line stronger support than the higher goal thresholds. The teams conceded an average of 1.88 and 2.00 goals per match this season, respectively, and neither kept a clean sheet. The hosts’ attacking potential is reinforced by an average xG of 1.72, compared with 2.00 xG conceded by the visitors’ defence. Although the projected total is 3.20 goals, the 2.5 line was surpassed in only 63% of Santos’ matches and 50% of Necaxa’s, making Over 1.5 the safer pick.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
Santos Laguna have won 4 of their last 5 matches, while Necaxa have not won any, which points to a home victory. Over this period, Santos led at the break in 3 of 5 matches and averaged 1.0 goal before half-time, while Necaxa conceded an average of 0.8. The hosts also have a higher average xG: 1.72 compared with the visitors’ 1.39, while Necaxa’s opponents generate an average of 2.00 xG per match. Santos could maintain their advantage after the break: they averaged 1.2 second-half goals in their last 5 matches, while Necaxa conceded 1.4 and lost all 5 second halves. A half-time draw remains a notable alternative, as it occurred in 50% of Santos’ matches and 67% of Necaxa’s over the full period analysed. However, the teams’ recent form most strongly supports an HT/FT scenario in which the hosts lead at the break and go on to win.
