Match description

Riga is the clear favorite: at home they average 3.0 goals per match (48 goals in the season, 15 in the last 5), while Grobiņa averages 0.86 goals away (10 goals in the season, 4 in the last 5). The difference in quality of chances is significant — Riga records an average xG of 2.24 at home versus Grobiņa’s 1.27 xG away, with average shots 19 vs 10.29 and shots on target 6 vs 3.43 per match. The home defense also looks superior: Riga concedes 1.14 goals per home match and has 43% clean sheets, while Grobiņa concedes 1.57 goals away and has 29% clean sheets. Form further favors the hosts — Riga have won 4 of their last 5 matches and average 2.6 points per match in the last 5, whereas Grobiņa have not won any of their last 5 (0-3-2) and average 0.6 points per match. Considering the advantage in goal difference (+13 for the hosts vs -5 for the visitors), higher efficiency (16% shot conversion rate vs 8%) and greater possession (65% vs 46%), I predict a home win.
