What KPV’s first halves look like
The first goal is usually the last one before the break: a second follows only 33% of the time against 50% division-wide. Getting two before the break is a stretch in this fixture: 23.5% against 37.2% across the division.
Three goals before the break is close to unheard of here, 8.6% against a division figure of 15.2%. Home advantage is worth a little to KPV rather than a lot: 45.0% of home matches bring an early goal of theirs against 39.0% away.
The record here is thinner than most of the division's: 81 matches against a typical 110. KPV guard the first half better than they attack it: 6th of 14 in the division for early goals conceded, 11th for scoring them.
Every figure on this page rests on 81 completed KPV matches over 3 seasons (2021 to 2023). At that size a single percentage point is about one match, so read each rate as a range rather than a figure.

How to read these numbers
- These are historical rates over pooled seasons, not a forecast. A club that has changed manager, division or squad reads as the average of every version of itself on record.
- The opponent matters as much as the club. A high-scoring side against a defense that rarely concedes early is a different fixture from the same side against one that does.
