General match analysis

Pisa come into this match in clearly better form: they have scored 10 goals and collected 10 points in their last five fixtures, while Virtus Entella have scored 5 goals and picked up just 2 points. At home, the hosts average 20.5 shots, including 8 on target, with an average xG of 2.24; away from home, the visitors average just 3 shots on target. Entella have failed to score in 100% of their away matches so far and have lost every one of them, which significantly limits their chances despite a respectable xG of 1.62. Pisa are not flawless defensively either, conceding an average of 1 goal at home and yet to keep a clean sheet, but their superiority in the quality of chances created and current finishing form points to a home victory.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

The BTTS - Yes pick is primarily supported by the current form of both teams, as the BTTS rate stood at 60% for both Pisa and Virtus Entella over their last 5 matches. Pisa scored an average of 2.0 goals per match during this period, while Entella averaged 1.0, with the visitors conceding as many as 1.6 goals per game. The hosts created more quality chances, recording an average xG of 1.85, while Entella posted 1.41 xG, giving them a realistic basis for scoring at least once. Pisa have not kept a clean sheet this season, and their average xG conceded is 1.02, so the hosts' defense does not provide a strong argument for ruling out a goal for the visitors. The main risk is Entella's poor away scoring record, with an average of 0.0 goals, but their recent form and the league-wide BTTS rate of 59% slightly strengthen the case for both teams to score.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

Pisa have scored an average of 2.0 goals in their last five matches, while Virtus Entella have conceded 1.6 goals per game over the same period, creating favorable conditions for the hosts. Both teams have had at least three goals in 60% of their last five matches, with the league average standing at 2.62 goals. The quality of chances created also points toward goals: Pisa’s average xG across five matches is 1.85, compared with Entella’s 1.41. Caution is warranted with the 2.5 line, as Entella are yet to score away this season, despite their season average xG reaching 1.62. The strongest signal therefore comes from Over 1.5 goals, as the projected total of 2.60 goals leaves a clear margin above this line.

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

Pisa are in clearly better current form: over their last five matches, they have averaged 2.0 goals scored and 0.8 conceded, winning 60% of their games, while Virtus Entella have not won any, averaging 1.0 goal scored and 1.6 conceded. The strongest signal concerns the first half, as Pisa led at the break in 80% of their last five matches, whereas Entella failed to do so on every occasion, trailing at half-time in 60% of their appearances. Before the break, the hosts averaged 1.6 goals scored and just 0.4 conceded, compared with 0.6 and 1.2 respectively for the visitors. Pisa also have the edge in the quality of their recent results, averaging 2.0 points per match compared with Entella’s 0.4. After the interval, both teams have played more cautiously, averaging just 0.8 goals across their last five matches, which supports the hosts maintaining their lead and the 1/1 scenario in the HT/FT market.
