Match description
Mārupe are the clear favorites: at home they score 2.4 goals per game with an xG of 1.81 and 56% possession, while Smiltene on the road average only 0.67 goals per game with an xG of 1.01 and 40% possession. The hosts’ shooting efficiency is markedly better — Mārupe posts a 20% conversion rate and averages 5.75 shots on target, whereas Smiltene has an 8% conversion and 3 shots on target; this translates to guests failing to score in 67% of away matches, while the hosts have never finished a home match goalless (FTS 0%). Defensively Smiltene concedes 3.17 goals per away game on average (xG against 2.38) and carry a -15 away goal difference, while Mārupe concede 1.8 at home (xG against 1.07) and sit at +3 overall, highlighting clear defensive vulnerabilities for the visitors. In the last 5 matches Mārupe have scored 8 goals and average 1.2 points per game, while Smiltene have scored 9 but conceded 12 and average only 0.8 points per game, indicating greater instability on the road. Therefore I project a home win with probabilities: Home 68%, Draw 18%, Away 14%.
