General match analysis
Shrewsbury Town have a clear home advantage: they have won 50% of their home matches, while Exeter City have lost all four of their away games. The hosts average 1.5 goals per game at home, whereas the visitors score just 0.25 goals per game away and have failed to find the net in 75% of those matches. The difference in chance quality is reflected in the average xG: 1.29 for Shrewsbury at home compared with 0.96 for Exeter away, while the visitors allow opponents chances worth 1.82 xG per game. In their last five matches, Shrewsbury have scored 7 goals and won twice, while Exeter have scored 3 and won once. Although both teams concede an average of 1.25 goals under these conditions, Exeter’s poor away scoring record points to a home win.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
The strongest signal against both teams scoring comes from Exeter: away from home, they average just 0.25 goals and have failed to score in 75% of matches. Shrewsbury keep a clean sheet in 80% of their home games, conceding an average of just 0.2 goals, further limiting the visitors’ chances of scoring. The hosts are better placed to find the net: their average home xG is 1.51, compared with the 1.82 xG Exeter concede away. Although Exeter have averaged 1.46 xG over their last five matches, they have scored just 0.6 goals, and BTTS - Yes has landed in only 20% of those games. The more likely outcome, therefore, is that at least one team fails to score (BTTS - No).
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
The strongest pick is Under 3.5 goals: all of Shrewsbury’s home matches and Exeter’s away matches to date have finished with no more than three goals. In those same matches, Under 2.5 goals landed in 100% and 75% of cases, respectively, pointing to a trend toward low-scoring results. Exeter average just 0.25 goals scored away from home and have failed to score in 75% of matches, while Shrewsbury concede an average of 0.2 goals at home. The hosts create more chances, with an xG of 1.51 compared with their opponents’ 0.96, but average just 0.8 goals scored at home. A forecast of around 2.03 total goals supports the 3.5 line, although the hosts’ respectable xG makes the lower 2.5 line a less secure option.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
Shrewsbury were level at half-time in 4 of their 5 home matches, while Exeter were level in 2 of their 4 away games, making a draw at the break the most likely outcome. The visitors failed to score before half-time in any of those 4 away games, while the hosts did not concede in the first half in any of their 5 home matches. Shrewsbury should have the upper hand after the break: Exeter concede an average of 0.75 goals in the second half away from home and lost all 4 of those matches. Shrewsbury’s higher xG of 1.51 compared with their opponents’ 0.96, as well as an average of 5 shots on target versus 2, also support a home win. A draw at half-time followed by a home win is therefore the strongest HT/FT pick, although Shrewsbury’s 3 draws in 5 home matches leave a significant chance of a draw at full-time.
