At home, the hosts score an average of 3 goals and concede 0.86 per match, while Jelgava score 1.27 goals and concede 1.6 away from home.

The hosts keep a clean sheet in 43% of home matches, whereas Jelgava fail to score in 40% of their away games. Both teams have recorded two wins in their last five matches, so recent form does not favor either side decisively. However, overall season performance and the home record point to Rīgas FS.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
The strongest case for BTTS - No is that the home side have failed to score in 56% of their matches, with a season average of just 0.81 goals. The visitors have scored more often, averaging 1.27 goals, but they have also failed to find the net in 40% of their games. So far, both teams have scored in 31% of the home side’s matches and 53% of the visitors’ matches, which does not provide a strong signal for BTTS - Yes. The last five matches look more promising for both attacks—averaging 1.6 and 1.4 goals, with BTTS in 60% and 40% of those games, respectively—so the preference for BTTS - No is only slight. BTTS - No means at least one team is expected not to score; it does not necessarily mean a 0-0 draw.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
The strongest signal is Under 3.5 goals, a result seen in 81% of Rīgas FS matches and 60% of FS Jelgava matches. The hosts average 0.81 goals scored, while the visitors average 1.27, although both teams concede 1.56 and 1.60 goals per match, respectively. Over their last five matches, each team conceded an average of 1.0 goal, while their average total goals were 2.6 and 2.4. The projected total of 2.52 goals allows for a two- or three-goal outcome, giving Under 3.5 goals a clearer edge than the more evenly balanced 2.5-goal line.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
A draw at half-time is the most likely outcome, as both teams went into the break level in 3 of their last 5 matches, while Jelgava did not lead at the break on any occasion during that period. Across the season, the visitors have scored more goals than the hosts, averaging 1.27 compared with 0.81 per match. However, in their last 5 outings, Rīgas FS have raised their average to 1.6 goals, compared with Jelgava’s 1.4. This improvement narrows the visitors’ advantage, while Jelgava have also drawn as many as 40% of their matches this season. After the break, it is difficult to identify a clear favorite to come out on top: in their last 5 matches, both teams averaged 1.0 second-half goals. Therefore, a draw at half-time and full-time is the single most likely scenario, although Jelgava’s superior scoring record over the season leaves a real possibility of a late win.
