Match description

Valmiera / BSS are the favorites: in the last 5 matches they have won 4 times and scored 21 goals in total (avg. 4.2 per match), registering an average of 2.4 points per game. Over the season the hosts have conceded only 2 goals, although in the last 5 fixtures they let in 9 goals (1.8 per match), indicating some short-term defensive vulnerabilities. Smiltene haven’t won any of their last 5 matches (0-4-1), scored 10 goals (2.0 per match) and conceded 12 (2.4 per match); away they average 3.0 goals scored and 3.0 conceded, so their away games are very open (avg. 6.0 goals). The visitors average 12 shots per match with 7 on target and have a 25% conversion rate, so they can create chances, but the lack of breakthroughs (4 draws in 5 matches) limits their prospects for full points. Considering league positions (2 vs 8), Valmiera’s attacking superiority in form (21 goals in 5 matches) and the visitors’ defensive susceptibility, I give greater probability to a home win.
