General match analysis
St. Pölten hold a slight edge thanks to their more solid defense: they concede an average of 0.6 goals per match at home, compared with WSPG Wels’ 2.25 away. The hosts have picked up 8 points from their last 5 matches, while the visitors have taken 4; during that span, Wels conceded 15 goals, compared with 6 for St. Pölten. However, a home win is far from certain, as St. Pölten score only 0.6 goals per game at home on average and have failed to score in 60% of those matches. Wels average 1.75 goals away from home, and their xG stands at 1.54, compared with the hosts’ 1.33 xG at home, giving them the potential to exploit their opponents’ poor finishing. Recent results and the gap in goals conceded favor St. Pölten, but Wels’ attacking threat leaves a genuine chance of a draw or an upset.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
BTTS has occurred in 67% of St. Pölten’s matches and 100% of WSPG Wels’ matches, compared with a league average of 55%. Both teams have scored in 80% of their last 5 matches, indicating that the trend has also held over the shorter term. The hosts’ chances of scoring are boosted by the fact that the visitors concede an average of 2.25 goals, rising to 3.0 across their last 5 appearances. WSPG Wels average 1.75 goals scored and 5.25 shots on target, while St. Pölten concede an average of 2.67 goals, making an away goal likely as well. Although the hosts average just 1.0 goal scored, both sides’ defensive vulnerability supports a BTTS - Yes pick.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
The strongest pick is Over 1.5 goals: this line has been cleared in 83% of St. Pölten’s matches and 100% of WSPG Wels’ matches. Both teams concede regularly—averaging 2.67 and 2.25 goals per match, respectively—which increases the likelihood that either one side scores twice or both teams contribute a goal each. Their attacking potential also supports this pick: average xG stands at 1.43 for St. Pölten and 1.54 for WSPG Wels, and both teams scored in 80% of their last five matches. The Over 2.5 and Over 3.5 goals lines have less support in the data, although Over 2.5 was hit in 60% and 80% of their respective last five matches. The forecast of 3.55 total goals points to an open game, but the lower line offers the greatest margin of safety.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
A draw at half-time is likely: St. Pölten were level at the break in 3 of their 6 matches so far, while WSPG Wels did so in 2 of 4; the same outcome also occurred twice each in both teams’ last five matches. The hosts’ improved form supports a home win later in the game: over their last five matches, they averaged 1.6 points compared with 0.8 for the visitors, who lost 3 of those 5 games. The difference is particularly evident after the break—St. Pölten won the second half in 3 of their last 5 matches, while WSPG Wels lost it 3 times and conceded an average of 1.8 goals in that period. However, the X/1 HT/FT pick is far from certain: across the season so far, the hosts have lost 83% of their matches, while the visitors have averaged 1.75 goals per game compared with St. Pölten’s 1.0.
