Archived pre-match analysis

This analysis was prepared before kick-off. The conclusions use only information available before the match and do not include the final result or post-match statistics.

General match analysis

Oulu has won 100% of home matches and kept 100% clean sheets, not conceding a single goal at home (0 conceded on average), while scoring 1.5 goals per game on average, with xG 1.2 and 4 shots on target per match. TPS have not lost any away game, but also have not won — 0 wins and 100% draws — scoring 1.5 goals on average with xG 1.66, 13.5 shots and 5 shots on target. Oulu’s main advantage is a compact home defense (0 goals conceded), whereas TPS’s strength is generating more chances and a higher xG (1.66 vs 1.2), giving the visitors a realistic chance to break through. TPS still concedes 1.5 goals on average away, and Oulu has a higher shot conversion at home (15% vs 11%), so I predict a draw as the most likely outcome.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

The strongest signal for BTTS - Yes is that TPS has a seasonal BTTS rate of 100%, while Oulu has 50% for the season and only 40% in the last 5 matches, which together support the possibility of both teams scoring. Oulu’s defense has looked weaker in recent weeks: seasonally they concede 0.5 goals per game, but in the last 5 matches they average 1.2 goals conceded and their xG against is 1.60, suggesting greater vulnerability than the seasonal average indicates. TPS on the road generates xG 1.66 and in the last 5 matches scores an average 1.6 goals, with an average of 13.5 shots and 5.0 shots on target, so they have realistic outputs to find a way past Oulu’s goal. In league context, the overall BTTS rate is 47% with an average 2.18 goals per game, but an additional risk signal is that Oulu has 50% clean sheets at home this season, which limits confidence in the forecast. In summary: due to TPS’s 100% BTTS, the visitors’ 1.66 offensive xG and Oulu’s increase to 1.2 average goals conceded in the last 5 matches, I assess BTTS probability at 75% (Yes) versus 25% (No).

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

The xG-based model values expected goals at 1.21 for Oulu and 1.63 for TPS, totaling 2.84 goals — above the league average of 2.18. Seasonal data shows Over 1.5 occurred in 75% of Oulu’s matches and 100% of TPS’s matches, while BTTS is 100% for TPS and 50% for Oulu, which further supports a minimum two-goal scenario. TPS generates more xG (1.66 vs 1.31) and more shots (13.5 vs 10.25), although their conversion rate is lower (11% vs 15%), indicating continued chance creation. Based on total xG=2.84 our model estimates ~78% probability for Over 1.5, ~54% for Over 2.5 and ~32% for Over 3.5; the strongest signal is therefore Over 1.5. I recommend betting Over 1.5 as the safest line, combining high xG, seasonal Over 1.5 rates (75%/100%) and TPS’s BTTS tendency.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

Oulu has a clear halftime edge: they led at the break in 50% of matches (leadingAtHTPercentage_home = 50.0) and accumulated 8 points in first halves versus 1 point for TPS (HTPoints_home = 8.0 vs HTPoints_away = 1.0). The home side virtually never conceded before the break (concededAVGHT_home = 0.0, seasonCSPercentageHT_home = 100.0), while TPS concedes on average 1.0 goals by halftime and is trailing at the break in 50% of cases (concededAVGHT_away = 1.0, trailingAtHTPercentage_away = 50.0). TPS records higher xG (1.66 vs 1.31) and more shots (13.5 vs 10.25), but this does not translate into away wins — Oulu wins 75% of home matches and averages 2.5 points per home game (winPercentage_home = 75.0, seasonPPG_home = 2.5), whereas TPS has 0% wins away (winPercentage_away = 0.0). Oulu also tends to score immediately after the break (3 goals in 46–60 min.), while TPS scores more often late (2 goals in 76–90), which increases the probability that the home side’s lead at the break will be maintained to full-time — hence 1/1 is selected as the strongest scenario.
