General match analysis

Raith Rovers sit 3rd, while Inverness CT are eighth, with the visitors picking up 7 points from 4 matches compared to the hosts’ 3 points. Inverness have failed to win any of their last 5 matches, recording 0 wins, 3 draws and 2 defeats, while conceding as many as 10 goals during that period. Raith have shown a clearly more solid defensive record over the course of the season, conceding 3 goals in 4 matches, compared to Inverness’s 4. At home, the hosts have drawn both matches and score just 0.5 goals per game, despite an average xG of 1.50, indicating poor finishing. Raith win 50% of their away matches and convert 15% of their shots, compared to just 4% for Inverness, making an away win slightly more likely.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

The BTTS - No pick has a slight edge, as Inverness kept a clean sheet in 50% of its matches, while its seasonal average of goals conceded stands at just 0.5. Raith averages 1.0 goal per game, but has failed to keep a clean sheet away from home and has failed to score in 50% of its matches, increasing the risk that the visitors will not find the net. The hosts also have a clear advantage in chance creation: their xG is 2.02 compared with Raith’s 1.03, while the average number of shots on target is 7.0 to 3.5. However, Inverness conceded 2.0 goals per game across its last five matches, so a Goal/Goal scenario remains realistic. Nevertheless, the low league BTTS rate of 35% and the hosts’ defensive profile point slightly more strongly towards an outcome in which at least one team fails to score.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

Inverness creates a high volume of chances at home, averaging 2.02 xG and 7.0 shots on target per match, while Raith allows an average of just 1.30 xG. The visitors have a more modest attacking output, averaging 1.03 xG and 6.5 shots per game, while the hosts concede just 0.5 goals and 0.58 xG at home. In their last five matches, only 40% of Inverness games and 20% of Raith games went Over 2.5 goals, while both teams recorded 100% of matches below 3.5 goals in the available season data. Additionally, the Scottish league averages just 1.75 goals per match, with games featuring at least three goals accounting for only 15%. The strongest pick is therefore Under 3.5 goals, as the projected total of 2.20 goals leaves a clear margin below this line.

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

Recent form clearly favors Raith Rovers: the visitors have averaged 1.4 points over their last five matches, while Inverness have managed just 0.6 and have failed to win any of those games. Before the break, the hosts never took the lead, were trailing in 60% of matches, and averaged no goals in the first half, whereas Raith led in 40% of their games and averaged 0.8 goals. Inverness have conceded an average of 2.0 goals per match across their last five outings, with a half-time goal difference of -3, increasing the visitors’ chances of building a lead in the opening half. Although Inverness’s earlier home statistics are stronger, with an xG of 2.02 and only 0.58 xG conceded, current form and Raith’s more solid defence, which has conceded just 0.8 goals per match recently, provide the strongest support for the HT/FT 2/2 outcome: Raith to lead at the break and win at full time.
