Least Goals Ccec8A


1. The problem is to estimate the least number of goals each team (Truro City and Wealdstone) will score in their upcoming match based on their season statistics. 2. We use the average goals scored per match (GF per match) as a baseline for expected goals. 3. From the data: - Truro City average goals scored per match at home: $1.40$ - Wealdstone average goals scored per match away: $1.30$ 4. Since these are averages, the least goals expected would be the floor of these averages (rounding down to the nearest whole number), as goals are discrete. 5. Calculating: - Truro City least goals expected: $\lfloor 1.40 \rfloor = 1$ - Wealdstone least goals expected: $\lfloor 1.30 \rfloor = 1$ 6. Therefore, based on season averages, both teams are expected to score at least 1 goal each in the match. Final answer: Truro City least goals = 1, Wealdstone least goals = 1.
