Match description
Rot-Weiss Essen have the edge in attack and home metrics: at home they score on average 2.11 goals per match with xG 1.87 and register 6 shots on target per match, while Verl average 1.78 goals away with xG 1.65 and 5.06 shots on target. Essen have 0% of home matches without scoring and win 61% of home fixtures, whereas Verl win 33% of away games and fail to score in 17% of away matches. At the same time, in the last 5 matches Essen have scored 12 and conceded 15 goals (avg. 2.4 scored and 3.0 conceded per match) earning 1.2 points per match in this period, while Verl in their last 5 have scored 9 and conceded 5 (1.8 scored, 1.0 conceded) with 1.4 points per match, which highlights recent defensive instability at Essen. xG metrics show Essen allow opponents xG 1.59, but in practice concede only 1.22 goals per home match (defending better than xG), whereas Verl have xG against 1.25 but concede 1.61 goals on the road (worse than xG), which gives the home side an additional advantage. Considering the higher number of shots by the hosts (16.33 vs 13.44), home efficiency and the fact both teams record high match goal averages (3.33 and 3.39), I predict a Rot-Weiss Essen win, although I expect an open, high-scoring game.
