What the NPFL numbers say

NPFL matches average 2.39 goals. Over and under 2.5 are close to evenly split (42% over), with both teams scoring in 51%. Results: 58% home wins, 32% draws.

Team differences matter more than the average. Bendel Insurance matches go over 2.5 85% of the time, Warri Wolves matches only 17%; Rivers United keep a clean sheet in 60% of games. Pair two high-scoring sides and the grid shifts towards overs and BTTS; pair two tight ones and it shifts the other way.

Early in a season these percentages swing a lot, so treat them cautiously until ten or more rounds are played. The NPFL hub combines them with team ratings and market prices; graded picks go to the track record.
