View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
xG and goal averages suggest a moderately high tempo—expected xG: 1.46 (Zacatecoluca) and 1.13 (Isidro Metapán), total 2.59. Season Over 1.5 rates are high (63% home, 84% away), and away BTTS is 68%, increasing probability of at least two goals. Zacatecoluca creates more chances (10.16 shots, 5.05 SOT) while Isidro Metapán converts well (16%), supporting the xG. Over 2.5 chances are moderate (seasonally ~53–58% and expected 2.59), while >3.5 is unlikely due to low seasonal Over 3.5. Recommendation: Over 1.5 as the strongest signal.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
The first half should be low-scoring — both teams have moderate HT averages and high HT draw/clean-sheet rates. Isidro Metapán shows a clearer tendency to lead at the break (leadingAtHTPercentage_away 47%), so a guest lead at HT is likely. In the second half the home side has the edge (higher ppg_2hg_home, better xG_for and lower xG_against for Zacatecoluca), suggesting a possible turnaround. The combination of draw/minimal lead at HT and a home win FT (X/1) appears the most sensible and strongest signal from the data.
