View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
Over the full season, both teams scored in 38% of KuPS matches and 42% of Oulu matches, both below the league average of 49%. In their last 5 matches, this scenario occurred for each team in just 20% of cases, while Oulu scored only 0.4 goals per match during that period. KuPS conceded an average of 0.4 goals recently and kept a clean sheet in 38% of its matches this season, increasing the risk that the visitors will fail to score. Although Oulu has conceded an average of 1.42 goals per match this season and KuPS has scored 1.0, the teams’ poor finishing in recent matches is a stronger indicator that at least one side will fail to score. BTTS - No therefore means at least one team is expected not to score; it does not necessarily imply a 0-0 draw.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
The strongest signal is for Under 3.5 goals: this line has not been exceeded in 92% of KuPS matches and 75% of Oulu matches. The hosts concede an average of 0.92 goals, while the visitors score 1.08, limiting Oulu’s scoring prospects. In their last five matches, KuPS scored 4 goals and conceded 2, while Oulu scored 2 and conceded 4; Over 2.5 goals landed in 0% and 20% of those matches, respectively. Although Oulu’s xG is 1.32 and KuPS’s is 1.17, their low scoring output in recent matches points to a forecast of around 2.05 total goals. The 3.5 line offers more margin than 2.5 and best reflects the advantage indicated by the teams’ goal figures to date.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
A draw at half-time is the most likely outcome: KuPS were level at the break in 62% of their matches, and this result occurred three times in each team’s last five games. Oulu failed to score in the first half in any of their last five matches, while KuPS did not concede before the break during that span. The case for a subsequent home win is supported by KuPS’s average of 1.54 points per match, compared with Oulu’s 1.17; over the last five rounds, the gap widened to 1.6 versus 0.8 points. KuPS average 0.77 goals after half-time, while Oulu average 0.58, giving the hosts a chance to settle a closely fought match. However, there is a significant risk that the draw will hold, as Oulu concede just 0.33 goals per match in the second half.
