Archived pre-match analysis

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

Liepāja’s strengths are evident in chance quality and game control: away xG averages 1.67 versus the hosts’ 1.26 home xG, and the visitors average 14.33 shots per game with 4.33 on target, compared to Super Nova’s 10.5 shots and 4 on target. Defensively Liepāja also performs better — conceding 1.33 goals on average away with an xG against of 1.24, while Super Nova concede as many as 2.5 goals per home game with an xG against of 1.85 and 0% clean sheets. Short-term form, however, favors the hosts, who have won 3 of their last 5 matches and scored 6 while conceding 8 in that period, which shows their offensive potential but also defensive instability. The visitors have a lower shot conversion rate (approx. 7% vs 10% for the hosts), which limits their advantage, but the 65% possession versus 39% and superior xG speak in their favor. Therefore I forecast a Liepāja win, while acknowledging a moderate risk of a draw due to Super Nova’s poor defense.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

Super Nova has a season BTTS of 75% versus Liepāja’s 33%, while the league average BTTS is 62%, which provides a clear signal in favor of Goal/Goal. In the last 5 matches both teams have a BTTS of 60% and have been conceding on average 1.6 (Super Nova) and 1.4 (Liepāja) goals, so both sides regularly allow goals. Liepāja has a higher xG of 1.67 versus Super Nova’s 1.19 and attempts more shots 14.33 vs 9.25 (4.33 vs 3.5 on target), which increases the away side’s scoring probability. Super Nova has 0% clean sheets this season while Liepāja has 33%, so the home side rarely keeps a clean sheet, supporting the BTTS scenario. Considering the home BTTS of 75%, the 60% last-5 BTTS for both, and the league 62%, I project BTTS - Yes with a probability of 70%.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

Both teams average 1.0 goal per game this season (Super Nova 1.0, Liepāja 1.0), but xG indicates higher attacking potential for the visitors: home xG 1.19 vs away xG 1.67, with xG against 1.31 (home) and 1.24 (away). Based on this I expect about 1.22 goals for Super Nova and 1.49 for Liepāja, totaling roughly 2.71 goals. Season percentages for over 1.5 are 75% for Super Nova and 67% for Liepāja, and a Poisson distribution for a 2.71 mean yields ~75% probability for over 1.5, making the 1.5 line the strongest signal. I rate Over 2.5 as marginal — Poisson suggests about a 51% chance of ≥3 goals, while season Over 2.5 rates are 50%/33%; Over 3.5 is unlikely (~29%), especially given the home side have 0% of matches above 3.5 this season.

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

Super Nova led at the break in 2 of their last 5 matches (40%), while Liepāja did not lead at half-time in any of those 5 fixtures (0%); hosts averaged 1.0 goals by the break versus 0.0 for visitors — this increases the likelihood of the home side holding a lead at half-time. However, Liepāja clearly dominate after the interval: visitors’ xG is 1.67 versus 1.19 for the hosts, second-half goals average 1.6 for Liepāja against 1.2 for Super Nova, and the visitors average 14.33 shots per game compared to 9.25. Additionally, in the last 5 matches the visitors won the second half in 60% of cases while the hosts did so in only 20%, which raises the probability of a turnaround after half-time. Considering the higher xG and shooting activity of the visitors combined with the hosts’ early efficiency (shot conversion 11% vs 7%), the strongest HT/FT signal is 1/2 (hosts lead at half-time, Liepāja win full-time).
