What to expect

We expect about 2.4 goals from Deportivo Táchira and 0.7 from Rayo Zuliano, so Deportivo Táchira come out ahead by a clear distance rather than a nose. Put together, that is around 3.1 goals in the game, and a match we expect to open up at both ends.

Rayo Zuliano come into this on two straight defeats. Recent results are only ever part of the story, but they are worth knowing before kick-off.

Our pick: Deportivo Táchira to win. Deportivo Táchira are the stronger side on the numbers (xG 2.4-0.7), and we make them about 77% to win. On this shape, taking them to come out on top looks the cleaner play than chasing a bigger price elsewhere.

We put the chance of that landing at about 75 out of 100. The price on offer is 1.22, which works out at about 82 out of 100. The price is shorter than our own read, so there is less in this than it might look.

One thing to watch

Favourites drop points more often than a short price suggests, and one moment can earn Rayo Zuliano a draw or better. The price is shorter than our own read of about 77%, so there's less value here than the number suggests.
