Match description
Ospitaletto average 1.39 goals scored and 1.00 conceded per home match, while Novara on the road scores 0.94 and concedes 1.06. Ospitaletto posts a higher expected xG at home (1.65) than Novara away (1.35), and also records more shots (12.72 vs 10.5) and shots on target (4.33 vs 3.83), with conversion rates of 11% and 9% respectively. In the last 5 matches Ospitaletto has scored 6 and conceded 3, averaging 1.6 points per game (2 wins, 2 draws, 1 loss), whereas Novara in their last 5 have scored 6 and conceded 10, averaging 0.6 points per game (1 win, 0 draws, 4 losses). Additionally, Novara draws as many as 61% of their away matches (wins 17%), while Ospitaletto at home has 39% wins and 39% draws, which indicates a strong tendency for the visitors to draw, but it does not offset their recent defensive issues. As a result, I predict a home win: 55% chance for Ospitaletto, 30% for a draw and 15% for a Novara win.
