Reserve and youth football in mid-July is a graveyard for sample sizes, and that's exactly the trap here. Central Coast II and Gold Coast United U23 sitting at 100% looks compelling until you clock that these are youth and reserve sides playing in Australian winter competitions where squad rotation and development priorities actively distort results week to week.
The page-wide average being this elevated is itself a flag — pre-season and lower-division reserve football tends to produce loose, high-tempo matches where defensive shape is an afterthought, inflating first-half goal rates well above what you'd see once competitive pressure arrives. Kuressaare II in the Estonian second tier is probably the most credible name on the list, but even there, seven matches is nowhere near enough to trade confidently off. Wait for the sample to breathe before staking anything meaningful on these lines.
