Meshakhte vs Dinamo Batumi: match statistics

Dinamo Batumi sit 4th, while Meshakhte are tenth, with the gap confirmed by their season records: the visitors have won 8 matches, compared with just 1 victory for the hosts. Current form also clearly favors Dinamo, who have collected 10 points and scored 12 goals in their last five matches, compared with Meshakhte’s 3 points and 5 goals. The hosts are particularly ineffective at home, averaging 0.5 goals, recording an xG of 0.91, and failing to score in 50% of such matches. Dinamo create more chances away from home, averaging 9.36 shots compared with their opponents’ 6.9, while their xG stands at 1.22 alongside 1.45 goals per match. Meshakhte concede an average of 1.9 goals at home, so despite Dinamo conceding five goals in their last five matches, an away victory is the most likely outcome.

The signal for both teams to score is clear: Meshakhte have recorded BTTS in 70% of their matches this season, while Dinamo Batumi have done so in 55%, compared with the league average of 56%. The hosts have kept a clean sheet in only 10% of their games and concede an average of 1.60 goals, while the visitors score an average of 1.45 goals per match. In their last five appearances, Meshakhte conceded 1.8 goals, with opponents recording an xG of 1.78, while Dinamo scored as many as 2.4 goals per game. There are concerns about the hosts’ attacking form, as they have scored only 5 times in their last five matches and produced an xG of 0.85, but Dinamo have kept clean sheets in just 18% of their matches this season. The combination of Meshakhte’s weak defence and the visitors’ regular vulnerability to conceding a goal supports the scenario that both teams will find the net. This points to BTTS - Yes rather than BTTS - No: at least one team failing to score is not the expected outcome.

The Over 1.5 goals line is strongly supported by the season statistics: at least two goals were scored in 90% of Meshakhte’s matches and 73% of Dinamo Batumi’s games. The hosts concede an average of 1.60 goals per match, while in their last five fixtures, their defense allowed as many as 1.80 goals and 1.78 xG per game. Dinamo Batumi are also in significantly better attacking form, averaging 2.40 goals with 1.48 xG across their last five matches. Meshakhte recorded at least three goals in 80% of their last five games, as did Dinamo, but for greater safety, Over 1.5 remains the strongest selection.

Dinamo Batumi are showing clearly stronger current form: over their last 5 matches, they have averaged 2.4 goals scored, 1.0 conceded, and 2.0 points per game, compared with Meshakhte’s respective figures of 1.0 goal, 1.8 goals conceded, and 0.6 points. The strongest signal concerns the first half, as the visitors led at the break in all 5 of their last matches, scoring an average of 1.8 goals without conceding, while the hosts failed to lead at half-time on any occasion. Across the season as a whole, Dinamo Batumi have also started matches strongly: they were ahead after 45 minutes in 64% of their games, compared with just 18% of occasions when they were trailing. Meshakhte have lost 4 of their last 5 matches and concede an average of 1.0 goal after the break, reinforcing the scenario of the in-form visitors maintaining their lead. The hosts’ advantage in full-season results, with a 50% win rate compared with Dinamo’s 27%, limits confidence in the pick, but the current form and the visitors’ dominance before half-time clearly support 2/2.
