Which team's games produce the most goals in the Premiership?

In the 2020 campaign, Team Wellington lead the Premiership in combined goal volume: their 16 fixtures have produced 67 goals in total, working out to 4.19 per game when both sides of the scoreline are counted. The away picture is equally lively — Team Wellington road games average 3.13 goals, suggesting their fixtures tend to deliver action regardless of venue.

Close behind are Wellington Phoenix II and Waitakere United, both sustaining high scoring rates this season. Wellington Phoenix II have clocked up 55 combined goals across 14 outings (3.93/game), while Waitakere United have registered 54 over 14 matches (3.86/game). A blended average of 3.89 between the two confirms that prolific fixtures extend well beyond a single outlier this term.

At the other extreme, Auckland City's fixtures are the quietest in the Premiership, generating just 49 combined goals across 16 matches — a per-game rate of 3.06. Punters looking at Under 2.5 or low-scoring markets could find Auckland City a recurring reference point this season.

Betting Angle — Over/Under Markets

For Over/Under markets, teams with an average above 3.83 are statistically strong Over 2.5 candidates, while those below 3.23 are better suited to Under markets. Always compare home and away averages separately — home advantage can shift the line significantly.
