Match description

Riga holds a clear advantage in the data: at home they average 2.91 goals scored and concede 0.82 per match with an average xG of 2.11 versus xG against 0.84, and their average possession is 64% compared to Tukums’ 46% on the road. Form further favors the hosts: Riga have won 4 of their last 5 matches and average 2.4 points per match over the last 5, while Tukums have lost all 5 most recent fixtures and have 0 points; in those 5 matches Riga scored 11 and conceded 6, and Tukums scored 6 and conceded 14. Quality of chances favors Riga — at home they average 18.09 shots (6.18 on target) with a conversion rate of 16%, whereas Tukums away average 12.82 shots (4.55 on target) and a 11% conversion, indicating more and better opportunities for the hosts. Defensively the hosts are more stable: Riga have 55% clean sheets at home, are still unbeaten at home (0% defeats) and win 82% of home matches, while Tukums have no away wins (0% wins) and record 64% away losses. Considering the xG advantage (2.11 vs 1.51), the difference in average goals conceded (0.82 vs 2.55) and form of 4 wins versus 5 losses, I forecast a home win; estimated probabilities are 80% for Riga win, 12% for draw and 8% for a Tukums win.
