Form. Fanja have won two, drawn three and lost five of their last ten, 0.9 points a game. Their last five, newest first: D D L L D. Saham have won four, drawn two and lost four of their last ten, 1.4 points a game. Their last five, newest first: W W W L L.
The numbers. Fanja score 0.4 and concede 1.1 a game over their last ten, with four clean sheets and six games without a goal. Fanja average 3.0 corners and 0.0 cards a game. Saham score 0.8 and concede 1.4 a game in their last five away, with one clean sheet and three games without a goal. Saham average 8.2 shots (2.8 on target), 5.5 corners and 0.8 cards a game.
Head to head. In the last ten meetings Fanja have won four, drawn four and lost two. Six of the ten went over 2.5 goals and both teams scored in seven. In the last four, Fanja won one and three were drawn. The last time they met, on 1 Feb 2020, it finished Fanja 1-1 Saham.
Where it pulls both ways. On goals, their goals for and against point to a tight game; their records put over 2.5 goals at 40%; six of the last ten meetings went over 2.5.
The read. No side to back. Nothing separates them clearly enough to back a side.
The bets. No bet on this one: too close to call. Leave: Fanja or Under 2.5 Goals (no result call); Saham or Under 2.5 Goals (no result call). Predicted score: Fanja 0-0 Saham (16% chance).
Every score's chance from both teams' checked games, never cut or rescaled. The lit square is the likeliest score that fits the read (the Model's table).
