Desenzano Calvina vs Trento: match statistics

Trento have a clearly better record over their last five matches, collecting 7 points from 2 wins, while Desenzano Calvina have managed just 3 points without a victory. The visitors have also been more clinical, scoring 6 goals during this period compared with the hosts’ just 2. Desenzano Calvina have drawn 3 of their last 5 matches, increasing the likelihood of a closely contested game and a draw. Both teams have conceded 6 goals in their last five appearances, so Trento’s advantage is primarily based on their greater offensive potential. The start of the season also favors the visitors, who won their only match so far 2:1, while the hosts drew 1:1.

The signal for both teams to score is moderately positive: Trento recorded BTTS in 80% of their last five matches, while Desenzano Calvina did so in 40%. Over this period, the visitors scored an average of 1.2 goals and conceded 1.2, while their average xG was a solid 1.77 against 1.34 xG allowed to opponents. Desenzano Calvina have scored just 0.4 goals per match recently, but they created chances worth 1.39 xG, and their season average at home stands at 2.0 goals scored and 1.7 xG. The hosts conceded an average of 0.8 goals across their last five matches, but Trento possess significantly greater attacking potential than this figure suggests. The league’s 60% BTTS rate further supports a scenario in which each team finds the net at least once.

Desenzano Calvino’s latest form has been clearly conservative: across their last five matches, the team averaged just 0.4 goals scored and 0.8 conceded, with none of these games going over 2.5 goals. Over the same period, Trento scored 1.2 and conceded 1.2 goals per match, producing an average of 2.4 total goals in their games, although 80% of them finished over 2.5 goals. The visitors’ attacking potential is supported by an xG of 1.77 across their last five appearances, but the hosts allow opponents an xG of only 1.30, so their projected goal output is limited to around 1.30. The total projection of 2.25 goals is below the league average of 2.4, while the hosts’ very poor finishing reduces the risk of a four-goal game. The strongest option is Under 3.5, as even in a more attacking Trento scenario, the line leaves room for a 2:1 or 1:2 result.

The strongest scenario is a draw at half-time followed by a Trento win at the final whistle, as both teams were level after 45 minutes in 3 of their last 5 matches, while the hosts scored only 0.2 goals per game during this period. Desenzano Calvina have failed to win any of their last five matches, scoring just 0.4 goals per game and losing twice, whereas Trento won 2 of their 5 matches and averaged 1.2 goals. After the break, the hosts averaged only 0.2 goals, while Trento scored 0.8, and a second-half goal occurred in 80% of the visitors’ matches. A cautious, level start is also supported by the average of 0.4 first-half goals in Desenzano’s matches and the fact that they failed to score before half-time in 4 of those 5 games.
