Both clubs come into the tie after a single recent league result – San Jose fell 0-2 away to Auriense, while Auriense reversed the script with a 2-0 home win. The mirror‑image form underlines that neither side has momentum, making the cup tie a pure test of their underlying attacking rates.

Robbo's Verdict

Solid
Both teams to score - Yes Solid lean Solid · BTTS edge

The model’s 54.9% probability that both sides will score reflects the equal 1.35 xG each and the recent 2‑0 win for Auriense, indicating both have the firepower to break the deadlock.

Show the maths
Each team’s expected goals sit at 1.35, so the combined expectation is 2.70. A combined xG above 2.5 typically translates into a BTTS probability above 50 %, which the model quantifies at 54.9 %. The equal match‑result odds (37.1 % each) show no clear winner, reinforcing the view that goals, rather than a result, will be the decisive factor. Hence the model’s strongest signal is that both sides will score.
Pick 2 · Both Teams to Score
Both Teams to Score — Yes 54.9% model probability

With CD San Jose averaging 1.35 expected goals and Auriense averaging 1.35, the model gives a 54.9% chance both teams find the net, ahead of the 45.1% it gives to at least one side being kept out.

Show the maths
BTTS probability is derived from each side's expected goals (CD San Jose 1.35, Auriense 1.35) run through the same Poisson goal-expectancy model used for the match result: 54.9% of simulated outcomes have both teams scoring at least once, versus 45.1% where at least one side is shut out.
Pick 3 · Total Goals
Over 2.5 Goals 50.6% model probability

Combined expected goals of 2.7 (CD San Jose 1.35 + Auriense 1.35) points to an open game, with the model giving Over 2.5 Goals a 50.6% chance against 49.4% for Under.

Show the maths
Total goals probability comes from the same Poisson model summing both teams' expected goals (CD San Jose 1.35 + Auriense 1.35 = 2.7 combined): 50.6% of simulated outcomes finish with 3 or more goals, versus 49.4% finishing with 2 or fewer.
Match Result Model

Our Poisson model, built from each side's real season scoring and conceding rates, has CD San Jose at 37.1%, the draw at 25.8%, and Auriense at 37.1% to win.

Most Likely Scoreline

The single most likely scoreline in our model is 1-1 at 12.2% — treat any single scoreline price with caution given how spread out the probability distribution is across a low-scoring match.

Form Guide — Last 5

CD San Jose

L

San Jose’s last five league games culminate in a 0‑2 loss away to Auriense, their only listed result. The defeat underlines a lack of attacking output, which makes the 1.35 xG figure crucial – the team must finally convert that latent firepower, supporting a BTTS scenario.

Auriense

W

Auriense’s recent form is a 2‑0 home win over San Jose, their sole listed result. Scoring twice against the same opponent shows they can exploit San Jose’s defensive frailties, feeding directly into the expectation that both teams will find the net.

Head-to-Head

The most recent head‑to‑head on 27 Sept 2026 ended 2‑0 to Auriense, confirming the away side’s ability to score and the home side’s defensive weakness, which aligns with the BTTS pick.
