Match description

Metta has a clear offensive and possession advantage: at home they score an average of 4.5 goals per game, take 27.33 shots of which 15.83 are on target and average 60% possession, while Skanste away average 2.2 goals with 11.75 shots and only 5 shots on target and 42% possession. The difference in quality of chances is confirmed by xG: Metta’s home xG is 3.4 versus Skanste’s away xG of 1.58, while xG against is 0.64 for the hosts and 2.14 for the visitors. Form also favours Metta – the hosts scored 23 goals in their last 5 matches and have a 4W-1D record (average 2.6 pts per game), whereas Skanste scored 9 goals in five matches with a 2-0-3 record and 1.2 pts per game. Metta is more clinical (conversion rate 16% vs 11% for Skanste), have no home matches without a goal (0%) and 50% of home games with a clean sheet; Skanste have no clean sheets away and failed to score in 40% of away matches. Considering superiority in shots, xG, efficiency and recent form, I predict a home win ('1') with approximately a 78% chance of victory, 12% for a draw and 10% for an away win.
