Match description

The favorite is VPS: at home they have 57% wins and 0% losses with a home goal difference of +10, while SJK records only 14% wins away and has a -5 goal difference. VPS averages 2.29 goals per home game with 5.29 shots on target and a conversion rate of 18%, whereas SJK away averages 1.14 goals with 4.43 shots on target and an 11% conversion. Defensively VPS concedes 0.86 goals per home match, and SJK concedes 1.86 on the road; this is supported by xG — VPS has 1.51 xG at home versus 1.33 xG for SJK away, while xGA is 1.29 for VPS against 1.62 for SJK. In the last 5 matches the hosts earned 10 points (3W,1D,1L) and scored 14 goals, while the visitors have 8 points (2-2-1) and 10 goals. Considering higher shot efficiency (18% vs 11%), more shots on target (5.29 vs 4.43) and the fact that SJK fail to register a shot in 43% of away games versus 14% for hosts, I predict a VPS win.
