Goal difference over this period is +11 for Bałtyk versus +6 for Polonia, which clearly indicates superior offensive efficiency from the hosts. Polonia’s defense is slightly more compact — the visitors concede on average 1.0 goal per game versus 1.4 for Bałtyk, so Polonia can mitigate the margin of defeat. The difference in points per game is marginal (2.6 for Bałtyk vs 2.4 for Polonia), but Bałtyk’s unbeaten run and advantage in goals scored over the last 5 fixtures favor the hosts as the match pick.

Analysis of the last 5 matches shows Bałtyk had BTTS in 100% of cases (5/5) and Polonia in 60% (3/5), meaning 8 of the last 10 matches involving both teams ended Goal/Goal, which strongly supports BTTS - Yes. In the last 5 matches Bałtyk averages 3.6 goals scored and concedes 1.4, while Polonia scores 2.2 and concedes 1.0, so both teams regularly both score and concede. xG in the last 5 is 1.55 for Bałtyk and 1.95 for Polonia with xG against of 0.6 and 0.96 respectively, confirming both generate real scoring opportunities exceeding ~1.5 xG. Additionally, 18 scored and 7 conceded by Bałtyk and 11 scored and 5 conceded by Polonia in the last 5 matches, together with forms 'wwdww' and 'wlwww', reinforce the BTTS prediction, therefore I pick the "yes" scenario.

Bałtyk has averaged 3.6 goals scored and 1.4 conceded in the last 5 matches (5.0 total), while Polonia has 2.2 scored and 1.0 conceded (3.2 total). Their xG in the last 5 are 1.55 for Bałtyk and 1.95 for Polonia, while opponent xG are 0.6 and 0.96 respectively, producing mixed but overall offensive signals. Taking a simple average of three indicators (goals average + own xG_for + opponent xG_against) yields expected goals of 2.04 for Bałtyk and 1.58 for Polonia, totaling 3.62 goals. Additionally, Bałtyk had 100% of matches over 2.5 in the last 5, Polonia 80%, and BTTS occurred in 100% and 60% of their games respectively — strong support for the over. Therefore I recommend backing Over 2.5 goals; I estimate the probability of Over 2.5 at about 70% (Over 1.5 ~88%, Over 3.5 ~49%).

Bałtyk led at the break in 67% of their last 5 matches and averages 1.67 goals by half-time, while Polonia averages 0.6 goals by half-time and were trailing after 45 minutes in 60% of those games. In the second half Polonia average 1.6 goals and have a +6 goal difference in second halves over this sample, whereas Bałtyk score 1.0 goal after the break and the hosts’ second halves finished level in 100% of cases. Both teams have been offensive in the last 5 matches — Bałtyk averaging 3.6 goals per game, Polonia 2.2, and home matches averaging 5.0 goals in total, which increases the likelihood of goals both before and after the break. Given Bałtyk’s strong tendency to lead at the break (67%) and Polonia’s ability to mount a turnaround after half-time (1.6 goals and +6 in the second half), the most likely scenario is 1/X (home team leading at half-time, draw at full-time).
