At home, the hosts have won 100% of their matches, averaging 2.0 goals with a very high xG of 2.63, while allowing opponents just 0.85 xG. East Kilbride have scored 14 goals in their last five matches, but are still winless away from home, averaging only 0.5 goals and failing to score in 50% of their matches. The visitors concede 2.0 goals per away match and have a -3 goal difference, which, combined with Ross County’s 22 shots and 11 shots on target at home, points to a clear advantage for the hosts. East Kilbride’s superior possession, averaging 65%, does not compensate for the significantly lower quality and effectiveness of their attacking play away from home.
