Both sides come into the clash with mixed recent form, but Toluca's firepower on the road stands out against Atlante's modest output at home. The fixture pits a team that scores twice per game on the road against a side that only manages a goal on average at home.

Pick 2 · Both Teams to Score
Both Teams to Score — Yes 54.6% model probability

With Atlante FC averaging 1.0 expected goals and Toluca averaging 2.0, the model gives a 54.6% chance both teams find the net, ahead of the 45.4% it gives to at least one side being kept out.

Show the maths
BTTS probability is derived from each side's expected goals (Atlante FC 1.0, Toluca 2.0) run through the same Poisson goal-expectancy model used for the match result: 54.6% of simulated outcomes have both teams scoring at least once, versus 45.4% where at least one side is shut out.
Pick 3 · Total Goals
Over 2.5 Goals 57.7% model probability

Combined expected goals of 3.0 (Atlante FC 1.0 + Toluca 2.0) points to an open game, with the model giving Over 2.5 Goals a 57.7% chance against 42.3% for Under.

Show the maths
Total goals probability comes from the same Poisson model summing both teams' expected goals (Atlante FC 1.0 + Toluca 2.0 = 3.0 combined): 57.7% of simulated outcomes finish with 3 or more goals, versus 42.3% finishing with 2 or fewer.
Match Result Model

Our Poisson model, built from each side's real season scoring and conceding rates, has Atlante FC at 18.3%, the draw at 21.2%, and Toluca at 60.5% to win.

Most Likely Scoreline

The single most likely scoreline in our model is 0-1 at 10.0% — treat any single scoreline price with caution given how spread out the probability distribution is across a low-scoring match.

Form Guide — Last 5

Atlante FC

LDW

Atlante’s recent five results are LDW – a loss to Necaxa (1‑2 away), a draw with Club America (1‑1 home), and a win over Cruz Azul (3‑2 away). The lone win shows they can score, but the loss and draw highlight inconsistency, suggesting they are unlikely to keep Toluca’s away fire at bay.

Toluca

LWLW

Toluca’s last five outings read LWLW – a 0‑2 loss at Pachuca, a 2‑0 win at Chivas, a 1‑2 loss to Pumas at home, and a 3‑1 win over Necaxa at home. The two recent wins, both with clean sheets or multiple goals, demonstrate a strong away scoring trend that underpins the pick for an away victory.

Head-to-Head

The most recent head‑to‑head ended 3‑3, showing both sides can find the net, but the model’s 2‑goal edge for Toluca still favors them to win outright.
