Match description
Inverness CT is a clear favorite at home: across the season they have 19 wins, 10 draws and 4 losses, and at home they score on average 2.19 goals per match while conceding only 0.69 (xG for 2.02 vs xG against 0.66). The hosts show a high number of shots — 16.69 per match and 7.19 on target — 69% home win rate and 44% clean sheets; in no home match did they fail to score (FTS 0%). Kelty Hearts have only 5 wins, 10 draws and 18 losses this season; away they score 1.19 goals on average, concede 1.75, have xG for 0.95 vs 1.51 against and record just 3.38 shots on target per match. The goal difference in Inverness home matches is +24, while Kelty away is -9, which together with superior chance quality (xG and shot volume) gives the hosts a clear defensive and offensive advantage. Although Inverness have 1 win in the last 5 and PPG 1.2, and Kelty 2 wins and PPG 1.6, I predict a home win.
