What the Challenge Cup numbers say

With 3.81 goals a game, the Challenge Cup is a goals-friendly league this season – over 2.5 has landed in 70% of matches, and both teams have scored in 60%. Home sides win 53% of the time and 15% of games end level.

The spread between teams is what makes these numbers useful. Clyde games have gone over 2.5 goals 100% of the time, while Queen of the South games have done so only 29% of the time, and Clydebank have kept a clean sheet in 57% of their matches. When two high-scoring sides meet, the over and both teams to score become strong options; when two tight sides meet, look at the under.

Remember that early-season numbers move fast and a handful of games can tell a misleading story. Our Challenge Cup predictions combine these figures with recent form, home advantage and the bookmaker prices – and we publish how those picks do on the accuracy page.
