Match description
I back the away win (Riga). The primary argument is offensive superiority: Riga averages 3.5 goals on the road (15 goals in the last 5 matches) versus the hosts' 1.0 goals at home (6 goals in the last 5). The visitors have significantly better finishing — conversion around 23% vs 7% for BFC — and average 15.17 shots and 6.67 on target per away match compared to the hosts' 13.4 shots and 5.6 on target. Riga collects an average of 2.6 points in the last 5 matches, BFC 1.6, with the visitors having 0% matches without a goal away vs 40% for the hosts; xG shows a moderate advantage 1.88 vs 1.71, indicating the gap stems from finishing efficiency. BFC’s only notable edge is lower average turnovers at the stadium (0.6 vs 1.17), but that does not offset the offensive disparity, so I favor Riga.
