PremiumMatch analysis
Two divisions removed from where it used to play, Leicester has managed just 0.8 goals a game this season, and that number sits behind Superior's projection for the visit of Plymouth in League One on 1 September. The model projects a 1-1 draw, with a 1-0 Leicester win next in line, in a match where both sides have won only once in their last five.
Leicester have won one of their last five games, and needed just one goal to do it
That lone win, 1-0, sits alongside three defeats in Leicester's recent form, a rough return for a club playing two divisions below where it used to sit. Plymouth's underlying scoring rate of 2.0 goals a game is the stronger of the two numbers, but their most recent outing ended in a 2-4 home defeat, and they have won only two of their own last five. Neither side is short of goals conceded, which keeps Superior's projection tight rather than lopsided.
A 4-1 win two matches back is the outlier in Plymouth's recent form
A 4-1 win two matches back shows Plymouth can be a lot more direct than a 1-1 scoreline allows for, and a home side averaging under a goal a game is exactly the kind of opponent that invites a heavier scoreline. LOSES IF: either team scores twice or the match finishes level at 0-0, since both outcomes sit outside the tight 1-1 or 1-0 shape the projection is built around.
