Novara, despite poor form in the last five matches (4 draws, 1 loss), presents significantly better disposition than Pro Patria, who are in a catastrophic streak of five consecutive defeats. The hosts remain solid at home, conceding an average of only 1 goal per match, while their xG (1.51) exceeds the achieved results, suggesting an underestimation of their offensive potential. Pro Patria is exceptionally weak away – 70% losses, just 10% victories, averaging 1.5 goals conceded and only 0.6 scored per match, with dismal xG (0.97 to 1.88). The difference in possession (52% vs 49%) and shot quality (4.18 vs 1.8 on target per match) speaks for the hosts. Although Novara often draws at home (55%), the dramatic form of the visitors and their helplessness in attack (50% FTS%) give a real chance for the hosts to break the drawing streak.
