Prediction for the 1st half
Athletic Club MG have conceded at home in the first half in five of their last six matches. This trend is directly relevant to the selected period and supports a bet on Ceara to score over 0.5 goals in the first half at odds of 2.40*. There’s no additional first-half goal data beyond this recent run, so the reasoning is limited to those six games.
Match Result Prediction
Athletic Club MG are winless in their last seven matches. At home this season, they have recorded six wins, six draws, and five defeats. Ceara, meanwhile, have managed just three away victories, alongside six draws and eight losses on the road. Recent form from the hosts supports a double chance on Ceara at 1.51*, though Ceara’s away record tempers confidence in this pick.
Total Goals Prediction
The over 1.5 goals market has landed in 15 of Athletic Club MG’s last 17 matches. At home, Athletic Club MG are averaging 2.25 goals per game, while Ceara concede an average of 1.2 goals on their travels. These stats support a bet on over 1.5 total goals at odds of 1.42*.
Corners Prediction
The total over 10.5 corners has landed in six consecutive matches involving Ceara. That’s a strong case for backing the over 10.5 corners market at odds of 2.00*. With no average corner stats available for either side, this prediction relies solely on Ceara’s current run.
Both Teams to Score Prediction
Ceara have found the net in eight of their last nine matches, but have conceded in 16 of their last 17 away games. Athletic Club MG are averaging 2.25 goals scored and 1.25 conceded per home fixture. However, Ceara’s season average on the road sits at just 0.88 goals per game. Given this, the both teams to score (yes) market is priced at odds of 1.95*.
High-Risk Bet
Athletic Club MG have averaged 2.25 goals per game at home in recent fixtures, while Ceara concede an average of 1.35 goals away from home this season. The visitors have also allowed goals in 16 of their last 17 away matches, though that trend alone doesn’t guarantee the hosts will score twice. Over the course of the season, Athletic Club MG’s home scoring average is lower-just 1.24 goals per match-so the hosts’ individual total over 1.5 goals at odds of 2.61* remains a risky pick.
*Odds are approximate and may vary depending on the bookmaker.*
