Casertana vs Scafatese: match statistics

Scafatese come into this match in slightly better current form: they have collected 7 points and scored 11 goals in their last five games, while Casertana have earned 5 points and scored 9 goals. The visitors are more efficient in away metrics, converting 25% of their shots into goals compared with 18% for the hosts, and averaging 6 shots on target per match versus 5 for their opponents. Scafatese also hold an edge in the quality of chances created, with average xG of 1.67 compared with Casertana’s 1.74; however, the hosts’ defense allows opponents an xG of as much as 1.94, compared with 1.65 for the visitors. Both teams have drawn 100% of their respective home and away matches so far and have conceded an average of 3 goals per game, making a draw a realistic outcome. Nevertheless, greater efficiency and the stronger recent points return give Scafatese a slight edge.

The strongest argument for BTTS - Yes is current form: in their last 5 matches, Casertana averaged 1.8 goals scored and 2.0 conceded, while Scafatese averaged 2.2 and 1.6, respectively. Both teams scored in 100% of the hosts’ last five matches, compared with 40% for the visitors, which lowers but does not rule out the positive scenario. The creative potential is evident on both sides, with average xG from recent matches standing at 1.68 for Casertana and 1.32 for Scafatese, while the defenses allow chances worth 1.37 and 1.92 xG. Scafatese averages 6 shots on target per match compared with Casertana’s 2, but the hosts will face a team without a clean sheet, just as they themselves have failed to keep one. BTTS - Yes is therefore more likely than BTTS - No, meaning that at least one team fails to score; it does not automatically imply a 0:0 draw or that neither side will score. This outlook is also supported by the league-average BTTS rate of 65%.

The match profile points to a high number of chances, as Casertana’s average xG over their last five matches stands at 1.68, while Scafatese allowed as much as 1.92 xG during this period. The visitors averaged 2.2 goals per game in their last five appearances, while Casertana conceded 2.0 goals per match, strengthening the forecast for Scafatese to score at least once. The hosts also averaged 1.8 goals, and their last five matches produced a total of 19 goals, or 3.8 goals per game. The Over 2.5 goals line is supported by 80% of Casertana’s and 60% of Scafatese’s recent matches, but the most consistent signal is Over 1.5 goals. Both teams recorded 100% of matches with at least two goals in the available season sample, making Over 1.5 the highest-probability selection.

The strongest HT/FT scenario is Casertana leading at the break before Scafatese go on to win, as the hosts held a half-time lead in 40% of their last five matches, while the visitors were behind at half-time in 40% of theirs. After the interval, however, the advantage shifts to Scafatese: they averaged 1.2 goals in second halves, compared with Casertana’s 0.8. Scafatese have scored an average of 2.2 goals per game across their last five matches, while the hosts have conceded 2.0, which supports the possibility of a turnaround. Scafatese won 40% of their last five outings, compared with just 20% for Casertana, and their attacking xG stands at 1.67 versus 1.51 for the hosts. At the same time, the draw/Scafatese HT/FT outcome remains a highly realistic alternative, as Scafatese’s defense allows an average xG of 1.65, lower than Casertana’s 2.19.
