Match preview & prediction

Riga’s recent 2-3 loss to FK Liepāja still leaves the model confident of a home win, with a 71% probability and a 2-0 most-likely scoreline at 14.3%. The Virsliga side’s home form is strong against weaker opponents, averaging 2.69 goals scored and only 0.23 conceded, while Liepāja’s away record against stronger teams is poor, with just 0.33 goals scored and 3.33 conceded. These figures explain the 71% home win chance and the 20% draw and 9% away win probabilities. The expected total is 2.8 goals, with a 25% chance of exactly two goals. The model’s suggested picks include Over 1.5 (76.9%), Home win (71.1%) and Under 3.5 (70.3%). All selections are presented with their exact probabilities, and no other outcomes are mentioned.

Results analysis

The win extends Riga’s run, ending a streak of defeats with a 1-0 victory over FK Liepaja. The model’s pre-match favourite was a home win at 71 percent, and the call was correct. Its suggested picks were mixed: Over 1.5, at 76.9 percent, missed; Home win, at 71.1 percent, hit; and Under 3.5, at 70.3 percent, hit. The match finished 1-0, a clean sheet for Riga, matching the model’s 71 percent probability for a home win. The total of one goal fell below the expected 2.8, and the most likely score of 2-0 did not materialise. Overall, the model’s predictions were largely accurate, with only the over-goal selection falling short.

The five columns are the best market prices (highest first) for each pick; edge is vs the average. Result grades each pick against the final score.
