General match analysis

KuPS is the favourite: they sit 2nd in the table while Jaro are 9th. KuPS have 100% away wins this season versus 0% home wins for Jaro. Away, KuPS average 3 goals per match, 12 shots with 7 on target and a 25% conversion rate, whereas Jaro at home average 10 shots with 3 on target but 0 goals on average and fail to score in 100% of their home matches. Jaro record 60% possession and a home xG of 1.29 against xG conceded 0.77, which shows they create chances (1.29 xG, 10 shots) but are extremely inefficient; KuPS away have xG for 1.53 and xG against 1.74. In the last 5 matches KuPS have conceded 11 goals and Jaro 5, indicating defensive issues for both teams, but KuPS’s superior efficiency (25% conversion and no matches without a goal) gives them a real edge. Therefore, considering shot metrics, conversion and league positions, I predict an away win.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

KuPS away has a seasonal average of 3.0 goals scored and seasonal BTTS 100%, and in the last 5 matches concedes on average 2.2 goals (11 conceded), which increases the likelihood the opponent will score. Jaro at home formally has 100% clean sheets and seasonal BTTS 0%, but in the last 5 matches has scored 7 and conceded 5 (avg 1.4 scored and 1.0 conceded), and home xG 3.03 vs xG against 0.97 indicates a high volume of created chances. Jaro averages 26 shots and 10 on target per match vs 12 and 7 for KuPS, however shot conversion is 4% for Jaro vs 25% for KuPS, suggesting KuPS converts chances more efficiently. Considering the high xG and recent scoring form of both teams (Jaro 7 goals in 5, KuPS 7 goals in 5), I assess the Both Teams To Score scenario as more likely. Therefore I give 70% to BTTS - Yes and 30% to No Goal.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

I estimate 1.94 goals for Jaro and 1.11 for KuPS (total 3.05) — value derived by averaging season xG (Jaro attacking xG 3.03, KuPS attacking xG 1.53) and last 5 matches data (attacking xG 1.29 for Jaro and 1.14 for KuPS, and defensive xG 0.8/1.71). KuPS scores 3.0 goals per game on the season and has 100% of matches over 2.5, while in the last 5 games both teams averaged 1.4 goals each (total 2.8), which increases the likelihood of more goals. Therefore I give a strong 88% for Over 1.5 (Under 12%) — the projected 3.05 goals comfortably exceeds that line — and a moderate 68% for Over 2.5 (Under 32%), since the 3.05 total also clears 2.5, although Jaro only scores 1.0 goal on the season, which lowers confidence. The 3.5 line is less likely (Over 38%/Under 62%) — the expected total 3.05 is below 3.5, so the strongest and most reliable signal from the data is Over 1.5.

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

Seasonal statistics clearly favor KuPS: away goals average 3.0 versus 1.0 for Jaro, and the season-long average 4.0 versus 1.0 indicates KuPS superiority in the final result. KuPS lead at the break in 100% of matches and average 2.0 goals by half-time, while Jaro have 0.0 goals at half-time and 0% leads, which strongly supports the away team leading at the break. Jaro generate more chances and xG (xG 3.03 vs 1.53, 26 shots vs 12 and 10 on target vs 7), but convert them far less efficiently — 4% conversion versus KuPS’s 25%. Therefore, considering KuPS’s higher finishing efficiency and their history of half-time leads, the most likely scenario is KuPS leading at half-time and winning the match (HT/FT 2/2).
