U.N.A.M. - Pumas vs Club Queretaro: Over 2.5 goals

Pumas' modest 1.35 xG meets Queretaro's 2.0 xG, and the model rates the game as a clear Over‑2.5‑goals affair.

Both sides arrive with recent momentum: Pumas have turned a two‑game slump into back‑to‑back wins, highlighted by a 5‑1 thrashing of Juarez, while Queretaro have collected three wins in five, including a 3‑2 victory over Tigres.

Jonesy's Verdict

Strong
Over 2.5 goals Lost Strong lean Strong · High scoring

The model assigns a 65% probability to the match producing more than 2.5 goals, reflecting Queretaro’s strong away attack and Pumas’ leaky defence.

Show the maths
The model’s expected‑goals figures give Pumas 1.35 and Queretaro 2.0, a combined 3.35 xG per match. Converting that to a goal‑distribution curve places the probability of exceeding 2.5 goals at 65%. The over‑2.5 market therefore aligns directly with the combined xG advantage, making it the clearest probability gap.
Pick 2 · Both Teams to Score
Both Teams to Score — Yes Lost 64.0% model probability

With U.N.A.M. - Pumas averaging 1.35 expected goals and Club Queretaro averaging 2.0, the model gives a 64.0% chance both teams find the net, ahead of the 36.0% it gives to at least one side being kept out.

Show the maths
BTTS probability is derived from each side's expected goals (U.N.A.M. - Pumas 1.35, Club Queretaro 2.0) run through the same Poisson goal-expectancy model used for the match result: 64.0% of simulated outcomes have both teams scoring at least once, versus 36.0% where at least one side is shut out.
Pick 3 · Total Goals
Over 2.5 Goals Lost 65.0% model probability

Combined expected goals of 3.4 (U.N.A.M. - Pumas 1.35 + Club Queretaro 2.0) points to an open game, with the model giving Over 2.5 Goals a 65.0% chance against 35.0% for Under.

Show the maths
Total goals probability comes from the same Poisson model summing both teams' expected goals (U.N.A.M. - Pumas 1.35 + Club Queretaro 2.0 = 3.4 combined): 65.0% of simulated outcomes finish with 3 or more goals, versus 35.0% finishing with 2 or fewer.
Match Result Model

Our Poisson model, built from each side's real season scoring and conceding rates, has U.N.A.M. - Pumas at 25.8%, the draw at 21.7%, and Club Queretaro at 52.5% to win.

Most Likely Scoreline

The single most likely scoreline in our model is 1-1 at 9.5% — treat any single scoreline price with caution given how spread out the probability distribution is across a low-scoring match.
