General match analysis
Leixões have a clear attacking edge at home: they average 1.5 goals, take 12.5 shots and record 3.5 shots on target per match, while Amarante score just 0.5 goals away from home with 2.5 shots on target. The hosts have won 3 of their last 5 matches and scored 7 goals during that period, whereas the visitors have 2 wins and 5 goals across their five games. A key argument against Amarante is their lack of an away victory and the fact that they have failed to score in 50% of matches, although their defense concedes just 1 goal on average away from home. Leixões allow opponents an xG of 1.44, so they are not flawless defensively, but their own xG of 1.46, combined with their advantage in the quality and volume of chances, points towards a narrow home win.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
The “No” outcome is more likely because Leixões have not recorded BTTS in any of their matches so far this season, while both teams have kept a clean sheet in 50% of their fixtures. The season average for goals scored is just 0.5 for both sides, with Amarante averaging only 2.5 shots on target per match compared with 5.0 for Leixões. In their last five appearances, BTTS was recorded in just 40% of matches for each team, while Amarante conceded an average of only 0.8 goals. Leixões do create more chances, as confirmed by an xG of 1.78 across their last five matches, but Amarante have an average attacking xG of 1.24 and low finishing efficiency. Therefore, the most likely scenario is that at least one team fails to score. Additionally, the league BTTS rate is only 39%, further supporting the outcome of one side failing to find the net.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
Leixões have averaged 1.4 goals scored over their last five matches, while Amarante have conceded just 0.8 goals per game during that period, limiting the hosts’ potential for a very high-scoring game. The visitors have averaged 1.0 goal, while Leixões have allowed opponents to score 1.2 goals, so their contribution to the total goal tally should remain moderate. The xG model points to a Leixões advantage in chance creation (1.78 xG over the last five matches compared with Amarante’s 1.24), but the projected total of 2.55 goals still sits clearly below the 3.5 line. In the teams’ last five appearances, matches featuring at least three goals accounted for 40% each, while in the available season data, neither team has recorded a match with Over 3.5 goals. Therefore, Under 3.5 has the strongest backing, balancing the attacking indicators with the low risk of four goals.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
Leixões has a clear home-team profile: it averages 1.55 xG compared with Amarante’s 1.08, while also recording 5.0 shots on target per match against 2.5 for its opponents. In their last five matches, the hosts won 60% of their games and scored an average of 1.4 goals, whereas Amarante won 40% and averaged 1.0 goal. Leixões led at the break in 40% of its last five matches and in as many as 50% of its season data, while Amarante has not recorded a half-time lead in any of its away matches so far. After the break, the hosts have recently averaged 0.8 goals, whereas the visitors failed to score a single goal in the second half of their last five matches. The most likely scenario is therefore that Leixões takes the lead before half-time and carries it through to a full-time victory, making 1/1 the most plausible HT/FT outcome.
