General match analysis
Viking sit 2nd and have won 16 of their 21 matches, while seventh-placed Brann have recorded 9 wins and 10 defeats. The visitors are also in better scoring form: they have scored 16 goals and won 3 times in their last five matches, compared with 5 goals and 2 wins for the hosts. Brann’s home advantage is a factor, with the hosts averaging 1.82 goals and generating an xG of 1.97 at home, against Viking’s 1.45 goals and 1.64 xG away from home. However, Brann concede an average of 1.45 goals at home, while Viking concede just 0.91 on the road; the visitors also keep clean sheets more often (27% versus 9%). Viking’s edge in form and defensive solidity does not rule out a Brann win, but it makes an away victory the most likely outcome.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
BTTS has occurred in 70% of Brann’s home matches and 64% of Viking’s away games, both above the league average of 57%. Brann average 3.8 goals at home and have yet to finish a home match without scoring, strongly supporting the likelihood of a goal from the hosts. Viking average 1.45 goals away from home, with an xG of 1.64 compared with the 1.27 xG conceded by Brann, so the visitors also have a solid basis for finding the net. In their last 5 matches, both teams recorded BTTS in 60% of games, although Brann’s average goals scored fell to 1.0 over that period. This dip reduces confidence in the prediction, but the strength of the season-long indicators and the attacking potential of both sides point to BTTS - Yes.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
The strongest pick is Over 1.5 goals: this line has been cleared in all of Brann’s home matches and in 82% of Viking’s away matches. Brann average 3.8 goals scored at home and 7.8 shots on target per match, although their return over the last five matches has fallen to 1.0 goal per match, so the outlook for the hosts is more cautious. Viking have scored 16 goals in their last five matches, and their average away xG is 1.64, supporting the expectation that the visitors will also score. Over 2.5 goals is also well supported, but this line has been cleared in only 55% of Viking’s away matches, compared with 100% of Brann’s home matches. With a projected total of 3.4 goals, Over 1.5 therefore offers a clearer signal than the higher lines.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
Brann have won all 10 of the home matches considered and were leading at the break in 8 of them, making a home win at both half-time and full-time the single most likely scenario. At home, they average 2.0 goals in the first half and 1.8 after the break, while Viking average 0.91 and 0.55 goals respectively away from home. Brann’s attacking edge is also reflected in their average xG of 2.13 compared with Viking’s 1.64, and 7.8 shots on target per match versus 4.55. However, this pick calls for caution: Viking were leading at the break in 64% of their away matches, and across their last five matches overall they averaged 3.2 goals, compared with Brann’s 1.0. Despite the visitors’ improved form, Brann’s home record and scoring efficiency in both halves point to them maintaining an early lead.
