Deportivo Riestra vs Lanus: Under 2.5 goals
Deportivo Riestra host Lanus in a match where the model predicts a low‑scoring affair. With Riestra at 0.8 xG and Lanus at 1.1 xG, the odds favor under 2.5 goals.
Both sides come into the game carrying mixed form – Riestra have slipped to a WLDDD run while Lanus sit at WLDLW – but the recent scores suggest a defensive tilt rather than an open contest.
Bez's Verdict
The model assigns a 70.4% chance to under 2.5 goals, driven by both teams’ modest expected‑goal figures and a history of tight scorelines.
Show the maths
With Deportivo Riestra averaging 0.8 expected goals and Lanus averaging 1.1, the model gives a 63.3% chance at least one side fails to score, ahead of the 36.7% it gives to both teams scoring.

Show the maths
Our Poisson model, built from each side's real season scoring and conceding rates, has Deportivo Riestra at 26.4%, the draw at 31.3%, and Lanus at 42.3% to win.
The single most likely scoreline in our model is 0-1 at 16.5% — treat any single scoreline price with caution given how spread out the probability distribution is across a low-scoring match.

Deportivo Riestra
Riestra’s recent five games show a win (2‑0 vs Estudiantes L.P.) followed by a loss (0‑2 at Newell’s) and three draws (0‑0 at Huracan, 1‑1 vs Velez, 1‑1 at Platense). Scoring in three of those matches indicates they can find the net but also often settle for a single goal, supporting a low‑scoring outcome.
Lanus
Lanus have recorded a 3‑0 away win over Talleres, a 1‑3 home loss to Independiente, a 1‑1 home draw with Argentinos JRS, a 0‑1 away loss at Boca Juniors and a 1‑0 home win over Defensa Y Justicia. Their three‑goal win and two clean‑sheet results show they can both score and keep games tight, aligning with an under‑2.5 goal scenario.
Head-to-Head
In the last four meetings, the scores have been 0‑0, 1‑0, 0‑2 and 3‑1, totaling seven goals – but three of those matches featured three or fewer goals, underscoring the plausibility of another low‑scoring encounter.
