Head-to-head statistics Bahamas - Virgin Islands

Bahamas: the team are in frankly poor form
The Bahamas are going through a difficult spell: they have lost all five of their most recent matches, and the losing run stretches further back into the season. In the ten matches before that, they managed just one win against eight defeats - a clear sign of limited competitiveness at this level. Their average of 1.1 goals scored per game is modest, and their defensive vulnerability is very high, with 4 goals conceded. There is also a notable trend: the Bahamas have consistently scored and conceded in almost every CONCACAF Nations League match, with both teams finding the net in 11 of their last 12 games in the competition. Their position in the table is made harder by a six-point gap to the leaders, and their motivation is at a moderate level.

United States Virgin Islands: the team have been delivering consistent performances
The US Virgin Islands have been noticeably more consistent - three wins from ten matches, and a recent positive run of three wins in their last five games underlines the team's progress. Over that period their average goals scored is higher (1.5), and their defence looks considerably more solid: just two goals conceded on average per game across the ten-match cycle, and only one goal let in over their last two matches. They make good use of their away opportunities, though the trends suggest the visitors almost never score more than two goals on the road - they have gone under 2.5 goals in 13 consecutive away matches. Motivation is at its peak, with the Americans fighting for top spot under pressure from those chasing them.
