Match description

I predict a home win (1) — Venezia are favorites, with an 89% home win rate and conceding only 0.67 goals per home match on average. In attack at home they average 2.33 goals per match with an xG of 2.04, 19.17 shots and 6.44 shots on target per game, while Palermo away average 13.72 shots, 4 on target and 1.28 goals with xG 1.49; shot conversion is 12% versus 9%. Defence and limiting chances also favor Venezia — 50% of home matches are clean sheets with xG against 1.01, whereas Palermo have 28% clean sheets, 22% of matches without scoring and xG against 1.33 with an average 1.06 goals conceded away. In the last five matches both teams have an identical record of 3 wins and 2 draws (2.2 points per game on average), with Venezia scoring 11 and conceding 4, and Palermo scoring 9 and conceding 4, so form is similar but the quality of chances favors the hosts. Considering the possession advantage (66% vs 50%), shot volume and higher xG, I give Venezia a 65% chance to win, 20% for a draw and 15% for a Palermo win.
