General match analysis
Kauno Žalgiris have the stronger away metrics: they average 1.90 goals scored with an xG of 1.67, while Banga average 1.73 goals and an xG of 1.31 at home. The visitors also create more chances, registering 14.9 shots and 5 on target per match, compared with the hosts’ 12 shots and 3.82 on target, while also enjoying more possession (64% to 46%). Žalgiris’ away defence concedes an average of 0.90 goals, fewer than Banga’s 1.09, and defeats account for only 10% of their matches on the road. Banga do have the better recent record, scoring 7 goals and collecting 7 points in their last five matches, while Žalgiris have scored just 4 goals and lost 3 times in that period. Despite their weaker current run, the visitors’ superior chance quality and away stability give them a slight edge, although their high draw rate away from home (40%) increases the risk of a share of the points.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
Banga’s defense provides the stronger signal: the hosts concede an average of just 0.57 goals per match and keep a clean sheet in 57% of games. Their season BTTS rate is only 29%, well below the league average of 48%, which often indicates matches in which the opposition fails to score. Kauno Žalgiris averaged 1.9 goals per match this season, but have reduced that figure to 0.8 goals over their last five matches, with an xG of just 1.10. Banga should have a good chance of scoring, as Kauno Žalgiris have conceded 11 goals in their last five appearances and allowed opponents an xG of 1.57. However, it is more likely that at least one side—above all the visitors—will fail to score. Therefore, the stronger pick is BTTS - No: this means that at least one team will not score, and does not automatically imply a 0:0 draw or that neither team will find the net.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
The profile of both teams clearly favors at least two goals: Banga exceeded 1.5 goals in 71% of matches, while Kauno Žalgiris did so in as many as 90%.

In their last five matches, both teams had 60% of games featuring at least three goals, while their defenses conceded an average of 1.6 and 2.2 goals. Each team regularly creates around 14 scoring chances per match and records close to 5 shots on target, making Over 1.5 goals the strongest and safest signal.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
Banga has a very strong first-half profile: they led at the break in 9 of 14 matches, or 64%, whereas Kauno Žalgiris did so in only 3 of 10 games (30%). The hosts average 1.29 goals scored and just 0.07 conceded before half-time, while the visitors score 0.70 and allow opponents 0.60 goals on average. Banga’s advantage is also evident over the full match, with an average xG of 1.65 and 1.02 xG conceded, compared with Kauno Žalgiris’ figures of 1.67 and 1.15. The hosts kept a clean sheet in 57% of their matches, versus 30% for the visitors, which increases the likelihood of them maintaining an early lead. Kauno Žalgiris can be more effective after the break, averaging 1.20 goals, so draw or turnaround scenarios remain realistic; however, the strongest individual outcome is Banga leading at half-time and securing the full-time win.
