Archived pre-match analysis

This analysis was prepared before kick-off. The conclusions use only information available before the match and do not include the final result or post-match statistics.

General match analysis

Foggia have more going for them in the push for victory: they have won 2 of their 7 matches this season, while Cosenza have yet to win and have suffered 5 defeats. The difference is particularly evident defensively — the hosts have conceded 16 goals so far, compared with 7 for the visitors. Away from home, Foggia create chances worth an average xG of 1.60, slightly higher than Cosenza’s 1.38 at home, and score an average of 1 goal per game compared with the hosts’ 0.67. Both teams remain in poor form, although Foggia have collected 4 points in their last 5 matches, while Cosenza have managed just 2. A draw is a real possibility, as 2 of Cosenza’s 3 home matches have ended level, but the overall season record favors the visitors.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

I’m backing BTTS - No, as both teams have scored in just 25% of Cosenza’s matches and 33% of Foggia’s, well below the league average of 55%. Cosenza have failed to score in 50% of their matches and average 0.75 goals per game; Foggia have drawn a blank in 33% of matches and average 1.0 goal. Their last five appearances also offer little evidence of regular scoring from both sides: the home side averaged 0.6 goals, the visitors 0.8, while BTTS landed in 40% and 20% of their matches, respectively. The main risk to this pick comes from xG figures of 1.79 for Cosenza and 1.60 for Foggia, which suggest more chances than their actual goal returns indicate. Even so, their low scoring efficiency and results to date support a scenario in which at least one team fails to score.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

The strongest signal is Under 3.5 goals: 100% of Cosenza’s analyzed matches and 67% of Foggia’s finished below this line. Both teams have scored relatively few goals so far—0.75 and 1.00 per match, respectively—and their averages have fallen to 0.6 and 0.8 over their last five appearances. Higher season xG figures, 1.79 for Cosenza and 1.60 for Foggia, point to some goal potential, making the 2.5 line less certain. With the forecast at 1.25 goals for the home team and 1.05 for the visitors, a result featuring no more than three goals remains the most likely outcome.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

Cosenza were level at half-time in 2 of their 4 home matches, and a draw at the 45-minute mark occurred twice in each team’s last five matches, making a stalemate at the break a realistic scenario. Foggia have averaged just 0.2 goals before half-time across their last five matches and have not led at the break in any of them, further reducing the likelihood of an early lead. After the break, the visitors have recently averaged 0.6 goals, while Cosenza have conceded 1.6 in the second half and lost that period in 4 of their 5 matches. Although Cosenza have a home xG of 1.79 compared with Foggia’s away xG of 1.60, they have failed to win any of their last five matches and conceded an average of 2.2 goals in them. Therefore, a half-time draw followed by a Foggia win is the strongest single HT/FT option, although the visitors’ two defeats in three away matches limit confidence in the prediction.
