# Houston Northside at Richmond Tomas, 2026
Richmond Tomas gets the nod in our model for this non-district matchup, favored by three points with a 61% home-field edge. The Mustangs have enough juice at home to edge out a hungry Northside squad, but this one has all the makings of a coin flip that could flip either way. Our algorithm says back the hosts, but we wouldn't blame you one bit for fading the model and riding with the road team. This is the kind of game that'll come down to execution and momentum, not predictions.
