Match description

Cambridge United holds a clear statistical edge: they are 4th in the table and win 64% of home matches, while Barrow sit 23rd and win only 18% of away games. In attack the hosts score an average of 1.82 goals per home match (7 goals in the last 5), have an average xG of 1.56, 13 shots and 4.55 on target per game and a conversion rate of 14%, whereas Barrow score 1.23 goals away (6 in the last 5), have xG 1.23, 10.77 shots and 3.59 on target and a 11% conversion. Defensively the gap is even wider: Cambridge concede 0.68 goals per home match and keep a clean sheet in 41% of games, while Barrow concede 1.86 goals away with only 14% clean sheets; in the last 5 matches Barrow conceded 9 goals versus 4 conceded by Cambridge. Considering the advantage in quality of chances (xG 1.56 vs 1.23), finishing (conversion 14% vs 11%) and defence (0.68 vs 1.86), I give Cambridge a 72% chance to win, 18% for a draw and 10% for a Barrow win.
