# Zapata at Laredo Cigarroa Preview
The algorithm likes Laredo Cigarroa by three in this non-district matchup, giving the Toros a 61% home-field edge in what the model pegs as essentially a coin flip. Zapata rolls into Laredo looking to prove it belongs in the conversation, but the Toros' home-field advantage and consistency give them a slight computational edge. So here's the question for the faithful: do you trust the model's razor-thin margin, or do you think this one's too close to call and ready to fade the three-point spread?
