The match analysis:

In the Copa do Brasil match between Sousa EC and Petrolina PE that took place on 07 March 2024 (23:30 EEST), the home team, Sousa EC, emerged victorious with a 2-1 win.

Based on our data statistics, the home team prevailed due to their superior goal conversion rate. Although both teams had almost the same number of shots (Sousa EC had 8 total shots whereas Petrolina PE bagged 7), Sousa EC managed to have 2 of their 5 shots on target resulting in goals, displaying better finishing skills. Their two assists underline their effective teamwork and coordination in the attacking third.

On the defensive side, the Sousa EC goalkeeper made key contributions by saving 2 out of the 3 shots on target, a commendable saving percentage that helped minimize their opponents score.

While Petrolina PE displayed an almost equal level of aggressive play with Sousa EC, having committed just one more foul and earned an additional corner kick, they could not translate this into more goals. They yielded a larger number of shots off target (4) and had one fewer goal despite their three shots on target.

The equal number of substitutions by both teams indicates that the managers were on par when it came to tactical changes at critical stages. However, the slightly higher offsides by Sousa EC (2 against 1 by Petrolina PE) may perhaps suggest that they adopted a more offensive approach in a bid to outscore their rivals.

Despite neither team pulling into a considerably significant lead in terms of shots, assists, fouls, or corner kicks, Sousa EC prevailed through better execution and goal conversion, indicating higher focus and more refined offensive play. Maintaining this kind of precision in their future matches might see them earning more triumphant results.

Overall, although Petrolina PE put on a noble fight, it was Sousa EC's proficiency in front of the goal that determined the end result of the match. For bettors, focusing on the aspects of shots on target and goalkeeper saves could prove most useful in calculating odds for future matches for both these teams.
