Airdrieonians vs Ross County: match statistics
Statistical analysis points to a tight contest between two teams from the bottom of the table. Airdrieonians possess better form over the last 5 matches (1.4 points per match vs 0.8 for Ross County) and have not lost any of their last 5 meetings (1 win, 4 draws). The hosts have the advantage in possession (52% vs 48%) and a better xG record in home games (1.04 vs 1.32 against), although their scoring efficiency is low (45% FTS%). Ross County has not won any away match this season (0% Win%), recording as many as 63% draws on the road, which suggests a defensive approach. Both teams have an identical shot conversion rate (7%) and similar goal differences (-9 vs -10), which further argues for a deadlock. The poor efficiency of both squads and Ross County's high percentage of away draws make a draw the most likely outcome of this encounter.
