Both Teams to Score (BTTS)
-
Both Teams Not to Score:
57.10% probability.
A clear sign that clean sheets or one-sided scoring is highly anticipated, underpinned by defensive trends and relatively ineffective forward lines. -
Both Teams Not to Score in 1st Half:
71.60% probability.
The first half appears especially prone to being cagey, with the majority expecting no goals from at least one side—if not both—before the interval. -
Both Teams Not to Score in 2nd Half:
86.40% probability.
Significantly weighted towards a goalless latter period; ideal for in-play bettors targeting a drop-off in attacking intent as fatigue or tactical discipline increases post-halftime.
Team Scoring Trends
-
Away Team to Score in 1st Half:
55.00% probability.
While Duhok are favorites, Naft Misan exhibit a tangible threat early on, making away side 1st half goals a viable, data-driven punt. -
Away Team Not to Score in 2nd Half:
60.80% probability.
Implies Naft Misan may fade or be neutralized by Duhok adjustments post-break, bolstering case for late Duhok dominance or simply a subdued final period.

52.60% probability.

Expert Predictions and Insights
- The match is forecast to deliver a muted attacking show, with particular emphasis on defensive structures—making ‘Under’ markets and ‘No’ in BTTS markets particularly live options.
- Duhok stand out as marginal favorites, but bettors may find most value in halftime/second-half specific props (e.g., Away Team to Score only in 1st Half).
- Live/in-play bettors should watch for early Naft Misan aggression; however, expect reduced attacking threat from Naft post-halftime.
- Sharpest data angle: predicting very low-scoring halves, especially in the second period—stressing half-specific unders and BTTS ‘No’ bets.
