View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
The strongest selection is Over 1.5 goals, as Košice have surpassed this line in 80% of their matches this season, while Ružomberok have done so in 100%. The hosts are in an attacking rhythm: they have scored 15 goals in their last five matches, averaging 3.0 per game, although they have also conceded 1.8 goals. Ružomberok have yet to keep a clean sheet and concede an average of 3.0 goals, which significantly strengthens Košice’s attacking potential. Both teams are also creating quality chances, with an average xG of 1.51 for the hosts and 1.33 for the visitors, supporting a projection of around 2.85 goals. The Over 2.5 line also has merit, but the safer option is expecting at least a second goal, especially since the league averages 3.57 goals per match.
