145%(1.59)
X30%(4.31)
225%(4.80)

Sporting San José has shown much better disposition over their last five matches, earning 1.8 points per game and recording three wins, whereas Pérez Zeledón has a mere 0.4 points per game without a single victory in this period. The hosts have the edge in ball possession (55% vs 44%) and a better xG conversion ratio in home games (1.72 xG For vs 1.25 xG Against), suggesting offensive efficiency. Pérez Zeledón concedes an average of 1.54 goals per away game and has only 15% clean sheets, indicating a weak defense. Even though the hosts have only a 15% home win rate this season, their current form and statistical advantage speak in favor of their victory. The high percentage of draws for both teams (38% for the hosts, 31% for the visitors) and similar shooting stats make a draw a realistic scenario as well.
