# Santa Fe at Nederland, District Showdown Nederland's home-field advantage gives the Bulldogs a slight edge in our model, which pegs them as 2-point favorites with a 55% win probability in this district matchup. But here's the thing: a toss-up is a toss-up, and Santa Fe has every reason to believe they can steal one on the road.
