General match analysis

Samartex are 1st in the table, while Young Apostles are 17th, and the hosts have not lost any of the 4 matches included in the season record. Samartex average 2 goals scored and 1 conceded at home, whereas the visitors have yet to score away from home and concede an average of 3 per match. Young Apostles have lost both of their away matches so far, although their average xG on the road is 1.18, suggesting they create chances but are unable to convert them. In their last 5 matches, Samartex have picked up 8 points compared with the visitors’ 6, with goal records of 6:5 and 4:8 respectively. The hosts’ superior finishing and Young Apostles’ clearly weaker away defence point to a Samartex win.

View the statistical overview
BTTS - will both teams score?

The strongest signal points to Young Apostles failing to score: they average 0 goals away from home and have failed to find the net in 100% of their away matches so far. Samartex have kept a clean sheet in 50% of their home games, while BTTS has landed in just 20% of the visitors’ last 5 matches, compared with 60% for the hosts. Young Apostles have scored 4 goals in their last 5 matches, but their average xG over that period was just 0.18, weakening the case for them to score. Samartex average 1 goal at home, while the visitors concede an average of 3 goals away, making a home goal with Young Apostles failing to score more likely than both teams finding the net. BTTS - No means at least one team will fail to score; it does not necessarily mean a 0-0 draw or that neither team will score.

View BTTS statistics
Over/Under - goals analysis

The strongest pick is Under 3.5 goals: all of Samartex’s home matches and Young Apostles’ away matches to date have finished with no more than 3 goals. In their last 5 matches, Samartex averaged 1.2 goals scored, while Young Apostles conceded 1.6, giving the hosts a clearer chance of finding the net. Over the same period, the visitors averaged 0.8 goals scored, but their xG was just 0.18, making a significant contribution to the goal total difficult to expect. The 2.3-goal forecast is also close to the league average of 2.4, pointing to a greater likelihood of the total staying below the selected line.

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

Samartex led at the break in both of their home matches so far, while Young Apostles were trailing at half-time in both of their away appearances, conceding an average of 2.5 goals before the break. The visitors have yet to score away from home and concede an average of 3 goals per match, so the hosts look more likely to maintain their lead than to suffer a turnaround. Over their last five matches, Samartex averaged 1.2 goals scored, while Young Apostles conceded 1.6 per game, further supporting the 1/1 selection. Confidence in the prediction is limited by the small sample of home and away matches, as well as the fact that across the broader five-match sample, Young Apostles led at the break three times, compared with just once for Samartex.
