Our Ballymena United vs Portadown predictions

Portadown scores under 1.5 goals

Portadown has never scored over 1.5 goals in its last 10 matches (0/10). The team has scored only 5 goals total in this period, with a very weak attack. Away from home, against a Ballymena defense that has conceded at least one goal in 8 of its last 10 matches, Portadown might score, but it is very unlikely to score two or more. The statistic is extremely clear and reliable.

1.2

Confidence

Very high

Ballymena United scores over 0.5 goals

Ballymena United has scored at least one goal in 7 of its last 10 matches (70%). At home, against a Portadown defense that has conceded at least one goal in 8 of its last 10 matches, the chances of scoring are high. Portadown kept a clean sheet only 2 times out of 10. Ballymena, as the favored team, should create enough opportunities to find the back of the net.

1.2

Confidence

High

Under 2.5 goals in the match

In the last 10 matches, Ballymena United recorded under 2.5 goals in 5 instances, and Portadown in 7. Both teams have limited attacking prowess: Ballymena scored over 1.5 goals per team in only 5 of its last 10 matches, and Portadown never managed to do so. Portadown's defense is vulnerable, but Ballymena is not a prolific team either. A low-scoring match is likely.
