General match analysis

Cheonan City holds a clear statistical edge: they sit higher in the table (10 vs 14), have 4 wins this season versus the home side's 1, and possess a superior away record (on average 1.71 goals scored and 1.71 conceded away vs Cheongju’s 1.00 scored and 2.13 conceded at home). The visitors are also more efficient offensively — 4.86 shots on target and a 14% conversion rate away compared to 3.88 and 8% for the hosts, with a similar total shot volume (12.43 vs 12.75). Offensive xG is almost identical (Cheongju 1.56 vs Cheonan 1.55), but Cheongju concedes more than their xG suggests (xG against 1.33 vs 2.13 actual goals conceded), while Cheonan concedes slightly less than their xG against (1.85 xG against vs 1.71 conceded). Over the last 5 matches both teams average 1.4 points per game, however Cheongju have scored 10 and conceded 10 (2.0 average) whereas Cheonan have scored 8 and conceded 7 (1.6/1.4), which indicates greater defensive stability for the visitors. Considering the hosts’ lack of home wins (Win% 0%) and a negative home goal difference (-9) alongside the visitors’ superior efficiency (14% vs 8%), I forecast a Cheonan City victory.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

The primary signal for BTTS comes from the visitors: Cheonan City has a season BTTS rate of 86%, and both teams registered BTTS in 80% of their last 5 meetings. Both sides produce similar xG — 1.49 for Cheongju vs 1.55 for Cheonan — with xG against at 1.52 vs 1.85, suggesting both teams create chances and the visitors in particular exploit defensive gaps. Cheonan averages 4.86 shots on target per match versus 3.67 for the hosts and has a higher shot conversion rate of 14% vs 6%, while in the last 5 matches Cheongju concedes an average of 2.0 goals per match, increasing the risk of conceding. The counterargument is the hosts' low season BTTS rate of 33% and that Cheongju have 44% clean sheets (the visitors have 0% clean sheets), however these seasonal figures are balanced by form (last 5 matches: 80% BTTS for both). Considering the visitors' 86% season rate, 80% BTTS in the last 5 for both, and the league average BTTS of 63%, I assign BTTS probability at 80% for Yes and 20% for No and recommend the 'yes' selection.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

The xG model projects a total of 3.21 goals (1.67 for Cheongju: xG_for 1.49 and opponent xG_against 1.85; and 1.54 for Cheonan City: xG_for 1.55 and opponent xG_against 1.52). This level of xG corresponds to approximately a 62% probability of Over 2.5 goals and about an 83% chance of Over 1.5 (Poisson calculations for λ=3.21). Supporting factors are recent form: in their last 5 matches both teams have 80% of games over 2.5 and 80% BTTS, while Cheonan City has a season over 2.5 rate of 86% and averages 1.71 goals. Cheongju, however, totals only 0.78 goals scored per season and has a low conversion rate of 6% versus 14% for Cheonan, indicating finishing issues despite xG 1.49. Therefore the strongest signal from the data is a play on Over 2.5 (side: over, line: 2.5).

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

At half-time a draw scenario appears most likely: the home side were level at the break in 3 matches (33%), while the visitors were also level at half-time in 3 matches (43%), with average first-half goals of 0.67 for the hosts and 1.14 for the visitors. After the break the visitors, however, dominate offensively — the average second-half goals in Cheonan City’s away games is 2.29, and in 86% of those second halves at least 2 goals are scored. The visitors’ shot conversion rate is 14% versus 6% for the hosts, suggesting greater efficacy in finishing chances after the interval. The home team has a high full-time draw rate (56% of home matches end level), while the visitors have a slightly higher season win rate (29% versus 22%), so the strongest signal is a draw at half-time and an away win at full-time (X/2).
