Home vs Away: A Tale of Two Realities
| Venue | Matches | Wins | Draws | Losses | Goals For | Goals Against |
| Home (Belize) | 13 | 3 | 4 | 6 | 11 | 22 |
| Away | 19 | 0 | 1 | 18 | 10 | 66 |
Verdes have consistently shown resilience at home, earning all three of their international wins and most of their draws in Belize. Away fixtures, however, have proven far more punishing — a reflection of the travel, altitude, and professional depth of their opponents.
