# Midland at Odessa, District Showdown The algorithm likes Odessa by a field goal in this Permian Basin clash, giving the Mustangs a 55% edge at home. It's close enough that you could flip a coin and feel fine about it, but our model sees just enough in the home team's favor to lean that way. The real question for fans: do you trust the computer's slight lean toward Odessa, or do you think Midland has the goods to steal one on the road? Either way, this one figures to come down to the final possession.
