Koper has a strong, if unspectacular, home record and is the favourite going into this game. Their xG ratings (1.48 for and against) for both attacking and defending highlight both potential flaws and areas of balance that Bravo could exploit. Their average of 1.36 points per game plainly reveals their dominance of the home advantage.

Bravo, on the other hand, must ascend a steep slope to victory. Their 17% win rate and 75% loss record suggest that they struggle to win away from home. This is a tough picture given their away record. Furthermore, a concerning 1.83 average xG away from home points to potential defensive flaws that Koper could take advantage of.

There's little likelihood of goals because both teams have produced low-scoring and less entertaining games in the past.
