Archived pre-match analysis

This analysis was prepared before kick-off. The conclusions use only information available before the match and do not include the final result or post-match statistics.

General match analysis

Airdrieonians have won all 5 of their last matches, scoring 17 goals and conceding just 3, while Montrose have recorded 3 wins and 2 defeats with a 10:9 goal difference. The visitors sit higher in the table, in 3rd place compared with the hosts in 6th, and average 1.5 goals away from home, against Airdrieonians' 0.75 goals per home match. However, the quality of chances created favors the hosts: their home xG is 1.11, while Montrose average 0.87 xG away and allow opponents chances worth 1.91 xG. Airdrieonians have kept a clean sheet in half of their home matches, but have won only 25% of them and drawn half, so their advantage is not decisive. Their winning streak and favourable comparison in chance quality give the hosts a slight edge, despite Montrose's greater scoring output away from home.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

In their last five matches, both teams scored in 60% of Airdrieonians’ games and 100% of Montrose’s, which points towards BTTS - Yes. The hosts averaged 3.4 goals scored over this period, while the visitors conceded 1.8, so Airdrieonians look well placed to get on the scoresheet. Montrose averaged 2.0 goals scored in their last five outings, although Airdrieonians conceded just 0.6 goals, which is the main risk to this prediction. Over the season, both teams have had goals scored by both sides in 50% of their matches, so the edge for BTTS - Yes is moderate rather than decisive.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

In the seasonal statistics considered, both teams’ matches went Over 1.5 goals in 100% of cases, making this the strongest-backed line. Airdrieonians averaged 1.75 goals scored, while Montrose conceded 1.5, giving the hosts a solid basis to contribute a significant share of the projected 3.1 goals. In their last five matches, the hosts scored 17 goals, while the visitors conceded 9; their latest xG figures also stand at 1.87 and 1.53 xG conceded by Montrose, respectively. Over 2.5 goals also looks promising, but there is greater reason for caution with the Over 3.5 line: only 25% of the Airdrieonians matches included in the analysis went Over, and none of Montrose’s did. Therefore, Over 1.5 goals is the safest pick, although it does not guarantee a result.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

The strongest scenario is Airdrieonians leading at the break and going on to win: the hosts have won their last five matches and were ahead at half-time in four of them. Over that period, they averaged 1.8 goals scored and 0.2 conceded before the break; Montrose averaged 1.0 scored and 0.4 conceded, so they too can make a strong start. The hosts’ form after half-time also supports them holding on to their advantage: they averaged 1.6 goals in the second half, while the visitors conceded 1.4 and have not won a second half in any of their last five matches. The difference in full-time results is also clear: Airdrieonians have taken all 15 points from their last five matches, compared with Montrose’s nine. The 1/1 HT/FT pick remains the most likely outcome, although the visitors’ strong starts—they led at the break in three of their last five matches—make the prediction less certain.
