Strong
Union Santa Fe Draw No Bet Strong · Clear probability edge

Back Union Santa Fe on a draw‑no‑bet – the model assigns a combined 97.4% chance of win or draw, leaving the away side with only a 2.5% win probability.

Show the maths
The model's win probability of 71.9% stems from Santa Fe's 1.4 expected goals versus Central Córdoba's 0.1, a ten‑fold difference that drives the scoring expectation. Adding the 25.5% draw probability gives a 97.4% chance that Santa Fe will not lose, while Central Córdoba's win chance sits at just 2.5%. The low BTTS probability (7.2%) and the under‑2.5 goals probability (80.9%) reinforce the expectation of a low‑scoring, Santa Fe‑dominant match.
Pick 2 · Both Teams to Score
Both Teams to Score — No (one side kept off the scoresheet) 92.8% model probability

With Union Santa Fe averaging 1.4 expected goals and Central Cordoba de Santiago averaging 0.1, the model gives a 92.8% chance at least one side fails to score, ahead of the 7.2% it gives to both teams scoring.

Show the maths
BTTS probability is derived from each side's expected goals (Union Santa Fe 1.4, Central Cordoba de Santiago 0.1) run through the same Poisson goal-expectancy model used for the match result: 7.2% of simulated outcomes have both teams scoring at least once, versus 92.8% where at least one side is shut out.
Pick 3 · Total Goals
Under 2.5 Goals 80.9% model probability

Combined expected goals of 1.5 (Union Santa Fe 1.4 + Central Cordoba de Santiago 0.1) points to a tighter game, with the model giving Under 2.5 Goals a 80.9% chance against 19.1% for Over.

Show the maths
Total goals probability comes from the same Poisson model summing both teams' expected goals (Union Santa Fe 1.4 + Central Cordoba de Santiago 0.1 = 1.5 combined): 19.1% of simulated outcomes finish with 3 or more goals, versus 80.9% finishing with 2 or fewer.
Match Result Model

Form Guide — Last 5

Union Santa Fe

DWLDL

Santa Fe's recent stretch reads D‑W‑L‑D‑L, highlighted by a 2‑1 win away at Independ. Rivadavia and a 1‑1 draw at home against Talleres Córdoba. The win shows they can break down defenses, while the draws and losses underline occasional lapses – but the 2‑1 result demonstrates enough attacking quality to back a draw‑no‑bet.

Central Cordoba de Santiago

DLLLW

Central Córdoba have posted D‑L‑L‑L‑W, notably a 1‑0 home win over San Lorenzo and a 0‑1 loss away at Gimnasia M. Their solitary win was narrow and the three consecutive defeats show limited offensive output, reinforcing the low likelihood of them overturning the draw‑no‑bet.

Head-to-Head

In the last five meetings, Central Córdoba have won three times, including a 3‑1 victory in October 2025, while Santa Fe have only one win (1‑0 in April 2025). The recent head‑to‑head favors the visitors, but the season‑long scoring gap and current form tilt the overall probability toward Santa Fe on a draw‑no‑bet.
