0 - 0

Lean

No clear edge available Void Lean · Insufficient data

The odds alone do not reveal a statistically significant advantage for either side, so we advise against a decisive bet on this fixture.

Show the maths

The only numerical input is the 3.7 price for Sarmiento, which implies a 27 % chance of a home win. Without xG or form data, we cannot calculate a model probability to compare against this market price. The absence of a measurable gap means there is no statistically identifiable edge to exploit.

Pick 2 · Both Teams to Score

Both Teams to Score — Yes Won 50.8% model probability

With Sarmiento de Junin averaging 1.3 expected goals and Independiente Rivadavia averaging 1.2, the model gives a 50.8% chance both teams find the net, ahead of the 49.2% it gives to at least one side being kept out.

Show the maths

BTTS probability is derived from each side's expected goals (Sarmiento de Junin 1.3, Independiente Rivadavia 1.2) run through the same Poisson goal-expectancy model used for the match result: 50.8% of simulated outcomes have both teams scoring at least once, versus 49.2% where at least one side is shut out.

Pick 3 · Total Goals

Under 2.5 Goals Lost 54.4% model probability

Combined expected goals of 2.5 (Sarmiento de Junin 1.3 + Independiente Rivadavia 1.2) points to a tighter game, with the model giving Under 2.5 Goals a 54.4% chance against 45.6% for Over.

Show the maths

Total goals probability comes from the same Poisson model summing both teams' expected goals (Sarmiento de Junin 1.3 + Independiente Rivadavia 1.2 = 2.5 combined): 45.6% of simulated outcomes finish with 3 or more goals, versus 54.4% finishing with 2 or fewer.

Match Result Model

Our Poisson model, built from each side's real season scoring and conceding rates, has Sarmiento de Junin at 38.9%, the draw at 27.0%, and Independiente Rivadavia at 34.1% to win.

Most Likely Scoreline

The single most likely scoreline in our model is 1-1 at 12.8% — treat any single scoreline price with caution given how spread out the probability distribution is across a low-scoring match.
