The two sides

Deportivo Pereira carry a model rating of 6.2 against 6.54 for Deportes Tolima. 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.

The model expects a tight, low-scoring game

Under the hood the model expects 0.83 goals for Deportivo Pereira and 1.15 for Deportes Tolima. Those two numbers, not the scoreline, are what the model actually estimates; everything else is derived from them.

Deportivo Pereira rate 0.46 in attack and 1.71 in defence, where 1 is league average and a lower defensive number is better; Deportes Tolima rate 0.66 and 1.25.

Deportes Tolima score most often in the 46–60 minute window (10 goals); Deportivo Pereira have let in 10 there.

Each cell counts the league goals that went in during that 15-minute window. Each side's goals sit above the goals its opponent has let in over the same minutes; the darker the cell, the more goals in that window. Stoppage time counts in the last window of its half. Source: API-Football season statistics, refreshed after each league match; own goals are not always counted on the same side as in the table, so a row can be a goal off it.
