Match description

KuPS is the favorite: they sit 1st in the table vs 10th-placed SJK, have 27 goals this season vs SJK’s 18, and a higher finishing efficiency — 10% vs 8%. In the last 5 matches KuPS scored 14 goals and won 4 of 5, while SJK scored 7 goals and recorded 1 win, reflected also in the five-match points average: 2.4 for KuPS vs 1.0 for SJK. The visitors average 1.71 goals per game and concede 1.00 on the road, hosts score 1.43 and concede 1.29 at home; average xG are 1.98 for KuPS vs 1.94 for SJK, suggesting better quality of created chances by KuPS. KuPS averages 6.29 shots on target per match with 61% possession, SJK has 5.57 SoT and 54% possession, and both teams rarely fail to score (only 14% of matches without a goal), so active play and multiple goals can be expected. On this basis I predict a win for the visitors.
