Match description
SJK has a clear home advantage: at home they average 2.0 goals per game, 15 shots with 5 on target and an average xG of 1.8, while Ilves away averages 1.67 goals, 9.67 shots (3.33 on target) and xG 1.1. The home defense is markedly more compact — SJK concedes only 0.5 goals per game at home and records 50% clean sheets, whereas Ilves concedes 2.33 goals per game away and has 0% clean sheets. Form confirms SJK’s edge: in the last 5 matches the hosts scored 16 goals and have a 3-1-1 record (averaging 2.0 points per game), while Ilves scored 8 goals and lost 4 of 5 matches, averaging 0.2 points per game. The difference in quality of chances (xG 1.8 vs 1.1) and the higher volume of shots and shots on target (15 vs 9.67 and 5 vs 3.33) favor the hosts in chance creation. Based on this, I back an SJK win.
