General match analysis
CS U Craiova are the favorites: at home they have 100% wins, averaging 4.0 goals scored and 0.0 conceded per match, with a +4 home goal difference. Petrolul 52 away have 0% wins, average 0.0 goals scored per match and have failed to score in 100% of their away games, while conceding 1.0 goal on average away. In terms of chance quality, average xG is 1.53 for the home team at home versus 1.52 xG for the visitors away, so both teams generate similar chances, but the hosts convert them far better — 31% shot conversion and 4 shots on target per match versus 0% conversion and 3 shots on target for the visitors. In the last 5 matches the hosts scored 7 goals and have a record of 2 wins, 1 draw and 2 losses with an average of 1.4 points per match, while the visitors scored 4 goals and conceded 8 with an average of 1.0 point per match. Based on this I predict a home win — key advantages are excellent conversion and 100% clean sheets at home versus a complete lack of away goals from the visitors.
View the statistical overviewBTTS - will both teams score?
I back BTTS - Yes at 60% versus 40% No because xG analysis and last 5 matches form give a stronger signal for both teams to score. The hosts concede on average 2.16 xG per match while the visitors generate 1.52 xG per match, which strongly favors a Petrolul goal. The visitors average 15 shots per match versus the hosts' 8, with 3 on target each (15 vs 8 and 3 vs 3), and the last 5 matches show BTTS = 60% for the visitors and 40% for the hosts; hosts averaged 1.4 scored and 1.4 conceded, visitors averaged 0.8 scored and 1.6 conceded. This contrasts with the league BTTS level of 38% and 63% clean sheets and the season stat for hosts showing 100% clean sheets, but those seasonal indicators are inconsistent with the information of 5 goals conceded this season and 7 conceded in the last 5 matches, so I place more trust in xG and recent form. Overall this yields a moderately strong signal for BTTS, hence the 'yes' 60% and 'no' 40% selection.
View BTTS statisticsOver/Under - goals analysis
Seasonal data give a strong signal for a low-scoring affair: percentage of matches under 1.5 is 100% for CS U Craiova and 100% for Petrolul 52, while percentage over 1.5 is 0% for both. Seasonal goals averages are 1.0 for the home side and 0.0 for the away side; in the last 5 matches the home team scored 7 goals (1.4 avg) and the away team 4 goals (0.8 avg), total 2.2. Last 5 matches xG is 1.62 for the home team and 1.34 for the away team (sum 2.96), so teams create chances (avg 2.96 xG) but convert them into only 2.2 goals; additionally, average shots are 8 (home) vs 15 (away) with 3 on target for each team and conversion 13% to 0%. Based on this I project 0.9 goals for CS U Craiova and 0.5 for Petrolul 52 (total 1.4) and consider the strongest signal to be Under 1.5.
View Over/Under statisticsHT/FT - half-time and full-time scenario
Half-Time/Full-Time market analysis: Half-time statistics heavily favor the home side: CS U Craiova led at the break in 100% of cases (1 of 1) and averages 1.0 goals at half-time, while Petrolul averages 0.0 HT goals and was trailing at the break in 100% of their matches. In full time Craiova also dominates — seasonally they average 1.0 goals, 3.0 points per match and 100% wins, whereas Petrolul has 0.0 goals, 0.0 points and 0% wins; the home side concedes on average 0.0 goals vs 1.0 for the visitors. The quality-of-chances analysis shows a contrast: Petrolul generate higher xG (1.52 vs 0.9) and more shots (15 vs 8), but their conversion rate is 0.0% versus 13.0% for Craiova, and the hosts have 100% clean sheets seasonally. Therefore the strongest scenario is a home lead at the break and a home win at full time (1/1) — I assign this a 70% probability, with limited allowances for a draw or a rare turnaround.
