This analysis was prepared before kick-off. The conclusions use only information available before the match and do not include the final result or post-match statistics.

General match analysis

I back the home win ('1') because Skanste hold the edge in home metrics: they average 1.6 goals at home with xG 1.54, 12 shots and 54% possession, versus Ventspils' 9.5 shots and 47% possession on the road. Defensively hosts also perform better at the stadium — Skanste concede 1.0 goal per home match and keep clean sheets in 40% of home games, while Ventspils concede 2.33 goals per away match with 0% clean sheets. The visitors, however, show superior short-term form: 2 wins and 7 goals in the last 5 matches and 1.4 points per game in that period, and their shot conversion rate away is 18% versus the hosts' 13%. Skanste also have a better home goal difference (+3) while Ventspils carry -4 on the road, underscoring the home advantage despite the visitors' better form. I therefore set the probability distribution at Home 60%, Draw 25% and Away 15%.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

Statistics favor the 'both teams to score' scenario: JFK Ventspils has a seasonal BTTS rate of 100%, and the league BTTS rate is 63%, with BTTS in the last 5 matches at 60% for both teams (Skanste 60%, Ventspils 60%). Ventspils away generates average xG 1.47, registers 4.75 shots on target per match and has a conversion rate of 18%, increasing the likelihood of them scoring against the hosts. Skanste scores only 0.4 goals at home seasonally, but in the last 5 matches they scored 6 goals (avg 1.2) and have a recent xG of 1.78, while conceding 13 goals in those five matches (avg 2.6). Since Ventspils has no clean sheets this season (0% clean sheets) and concedes 2.33 goals away on average, I combine these signals and assign BTTS - Yes a 78% probability versus No 22%.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

Based on the home xG of 1.14 and the away defense conceding xG of 1.43, I project Skanste to score on average 1.29 goals; similarly, JFK Ventspils with xG 1.47 against a home defense xG conceded of 1.29 yields 1.38 goals for the visitors, totaling ~2.67 goals. Additionally, JFK Ventspils has 83% of matches over 2.5 goals and 100% over 1.5 goals this season, while the league records 67% of games over 2.5, which strengthens the over signal. Although Skanste only scores 0.4 goals on average this season with a low shot conversion of 6%, their average xG in the last 5 matches rose to 1.78 and they conceded 2.6 goals on average in those five matches, increasing the risk of more goals. Ventspils, meanwhile, scores 1.67 goals this season with an 18% conversion rate and 100% of their matches have seen goals from both teams, so I expect the visitors to convert their chances. For these reasons the strongest data-driven signal is Over 2.5 (over), combining the expected 2.67 goals with Ventspils’ high share of matches above that line.

View Over/Under statistics
HT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario

The strongest signal is the away side taking the lead before half-time: the home team did not lead at the break in any match (leadingAtHT_home = 0.0, 0%), while the away team led at half-time in 3 matches, representing 50% (leadingAtHT_away = 3.0, 50%). Offensively the away team is clearly more effective — seasonal goals average 1.67 versus 0.4 for the home side (seasonScoredAVG_away 1.67 vs seasonScoredAVG_home 0.4), xG 1.47 vs 1.14 and a better conversion rate of 18% versus 6%, with an average of 4.75 shots on target compared to 2.4. The second half reinforces the projection: away matches average 2.5 goals after the break (AVG_2hg_away 2.5) versus 0.6 for the home team (AVG_2hg_home 0.6), and the away team scores on average 1.0 goals after half-time compared to 0.2 for the home side, which favors maintaining or increasing the lead. Additionally, the seasonal BTTS rate for the away team is 100% (seasonBTTSPercentage_away = 100.0), while the home team has a 0% home win rate (winPercentage_home = 0.0), which together suggest the away team will lead at half-time and finish the match as winners. Based on this I assign the highest probability to the 2/2 Half-Time/Full-Time scenario (55%), with the remaining outcomes totaling 45%.
