Expected Goals (xG) Analysis: Bury Lyth Town scored three from 3.23 xG, a near match between chance quality and the final return. Boley Athletic scored twice from 1.79 xG, finishing modestly above its estimate; with all seven shots on target, the visitors made their smaller share of the attempts count. The hosts had 14 shots, 12 on target, and the greater xG, so their win reflects a larger supply of dangerous opportunities rather than simply a possession advantage. Possession was almost level at 51%-49%, which makes the difference in shot volume the more telling measure of how the match tilted.

The early exchange could have turned into a loose, end-to-end affair, but Bury Lyth Town made the most of its first-half opportunities and reached 3-1 by the 29th minute. Boley Athletic responded after the break through Seungwoo Jeong, restoring a one-goal margin and ensuring the result remained in doubt. The visitors also won six corners to the hosts’ three, but the available figures show that their pressure did not bring another goal. In the end, Bury Lyth Town had enough attacking volume and a sufficient cushion to hold on, though not enough to make the closing stretch routine.
