General match analysis

Oulu are the favorites: the visitors average 2.67 goals away and have a 67% away win rate, while Lahti at home record an average of 0 goals per match, 100% of matches without scoring and a 0% home win rate. The difference in finishing is clear: Oulu converts about 20% of shots and averages 4.67 on-target shots away, whereas Lahti have only 2 on-target shots at home and a declared conversion rate of 0%, explaining the large goals gap. Looking at xG, chances created are similar (Oulu xG away 1.48 vs Lahti xG home 1.38), which suggests finishing efficiency, not a lack of chances, determines the outcome. Defensively Lahti concede on average 2.0 goals at home and have conceded 9 goals in the last 5 matches, while Oulu concede 1.33 goals away and have 33% clean sheets on the road, giving the visitors an organizational edge. Considering league position (Oulu 2nd vs Lahti 6th) and better recent form in the last 5 matches (1.8 vs 1.2 average points), I forecast an away win; I estimate probabilities at 65% for Oulu, 20% for a draw and 15% for Lahti.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

In my assessment, BTTS = No is more likely: 65% vs 35%. The strongest signal is Lahti's home defence — an average of 0.0 goals conceded at home and 100% clean sheets this season, with a seasonal home BTTS rate of 0%. However, Oulu possesses clear attacking strength: 2.67 goals per game on the season, away BTTS rate 67%, averaging 2.0 goals in the last 5 matches with 60% BTTS. xG and shot data confirm the visitors' pressure — xG for Oulu 1.48 versus xG against Lahti 1.09, 4.67 shots on target compared to 2.0 for the hosts and conversion 20% vs 9%. Despite Oulu's attacking edge, Lahti's extreme clean sheet metric (100% and 0.0 goals conceded at home) and the league's lower BTTS level (42%) prevail, so I tip 'No' with a probability of 65%.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

The model predicts 1.34 xG for Lahti and 1.29 xG for Oulu (total 2.63 xG), which indicates the match should produce at least 2 goals. Oulu has a seasonal goals-per-game average of 2.67 and a shot conversion rate of 20% on an average of 13.67 shots, while Lahti concedes an average of 1.8 goals in their last 5 matches; these figures increase pressure on the home defense. Historically Oulu has 67% of matches over 2.5 goals this season, and in the last 5 matches involving both teams 60% of games finished over 2.5, so I estimate the probability of Over 2.5 at about 62%. The strongest signal is Over 1.5 (88% in my assessment) — Over 2.5 also makes sense (62%), whereas Over 3.5 appears unlikely (27%) given the combined expected goals of 2.63 and the lower individual team xG figures.

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

Analysis of first halves shows an advantage for Oulu: the visitors led at the break in 2 matches (67%) and scored a total of 6 goals before halftime, i.e. 1.33 goals per half on average, whereas Lahti did not score at all before the break (0.0 average). Nonetheless Lahti has a perfect win record this season (100% wins) and clearly scores after the interval — on average 1.0 goal in the second half and 100% wins in second halves, which indicates an ability to execute a turnaround after halftime. Additionally Oulu displays superior offensive production: on average 4.67 shots on target versus 2.0 for Lahti, a 20% conversion rate versus 9%, and higher xG (1.48 vs 1.19), increasing the probability that they take the lead before the break. Therefore the strongest signal is the scenario where Oulu leads at halftime but Lahti wins after full-time — the comparison of Oulu’s 67% HT leads versus Lahti’s 100% second-half wins supports this outcome.
