Edinburgh City vs Annan Athletic: match statistics
Edinburgh City displays very poor home form with just 10% wins at home and a disastrous run of recent matches (0 wins in the last 5). The hosts concede an average of 2.7 goals per match in home games, indicating serious defensive problems. Annan Athletic also does not shine on the road (22% wins, 56% losses), but their goal record is significantly better (averaging 1.11 goals conceded). The visitors fail to score in 56% of away cases, which, combined with the poor disposition of both teams, suggests a low tempo for the match. Given the poor form of both sides, a high probability of a draw seems most logical, although Edinburgh City as the host may have a slight advantage stemming from playing before their own crowd. Recent form of both teams (Edinburgh 0.8 PPG, Annan 1.4 PPG) slightly favors the visitors, but their issues with scoring goals away from home level the playing field.
