In a Scottish Championship match on August 5, 2023, at 14:00 EEST, Inverness Caledonian Thistle FC (ICTFC) hosted Queens Park FC. The eventually thrilling contest concluded with Queens Park FC securing an important 2-1 away victory over the hosts.

The scoring was fast and furious with Queens Park getting on the board first, during the first half at 30:36 minutes. They further extended their lead with another goal early in the second half at 47:36 minutes. ICTFC tried to stage a comeback with a goal in the late second half at 85:36 minutes, but their efforts fell short.

Looking at the disciplinary actions in the game, Queens Park FC drew more yellow cards, three in total, compared to ICTFC, who only received one yellow card. This shows some level of aggression from Queens Park FC, but it did not result in any player being sent off, showing a fine line between aggression and discipline.

One key statistical factor that could explain the outcome of the match are offside positions. ICTFC was caught offside six times, compared to Queens Park FC’s four times. This indicates a high pressing line or a lack of harmonic movement from ICTFC, leading to lost attacking opportunities.

The corner kicks were almost evenly distributed, with ICTFC managing five while Queens Park had four. Despite having a marginal advantage in this area, ICTFC weren't able to capitalize, indicating a possible issue in set-piece strategies or execution.

In conclusion, Queens Park FC managed to edge out ICTFC despite the hosts' marginal advantage in corner kicks, and their aggressive, though disciplined approach in defense might have been key to their victory. ICTFC's higher offside count perhaps indicates coordination problems in attack, which they will need to reconsider if they are to emerge victorious from such closely contested matches in future. It is these factors that bettors should consider when making future wagering decisions.
