Where the two sides stand. Full tables

The two sides

Club America carry a model rating of 6.84 against 6.37 for Puebla. The scale is anchored so that an average side in one of Europe's big five leagues sits at 6.85, and it is adjusted for the strength of each team's league, so the two numbers are comparable even across borders.

Recent form (most recent last): Club America W-D-W; Puebla W-L-D.

The model expects goals

Under the hood the model expects 2.89 goals for Club America and 0.82 for Puebla. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

Club America rate 1.15 in attack and 1.20 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Puebla rate 0.49 and 1.33.

That points to 72% for over two and a half goals and 53% for both teams to score.

The three most likely scorelines are 2-0 (10%), 3-0 (10%), 2-1 (8%).
