Their scoring rate of 1.40 per game is modest, conceding 1.60 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market.

Changchun Yatai away from home this season: 4W 5D 1L from 10 away games — 1.70 PPG on the road. They are averaging 2.40 goals per away game — strong road scoring that makes them a threat even without home support.

Their away PPG of 1.70 exceeds their overall 1.20 — they actually perform better on the road than their aggregate form implies.

The form figures are too closely matched to derive a directional pick: Shenzhen Ruby FC 1.10 PPG, Changchun Yatai 1.20 PPG. Look to other data sets to build the analysis.

Head to Head

The rivalry is an even one: 0 wins apiece for Shenzhen Ruby FC, 2 for Changchun Yatai and 1 shared spoils from 3 past contests. Neither side holds a meaningful historical edge.

The last 3 meetings have been tight affairs, averaging just 1.3 goals per game. That low-scoring pattern is a meaningful historical input for the Under 2.5 market. The most recent clash, on 30 Sep 2022, ended 0–1 with Changchun Yatai winning.

With a balanced win record and just 1.3 goals per game historically, the H2H points toward a tight, low-scoring contest. Under 2.5 goals has the strongest statistical grounding from the fixture history regardless of which side wins.

Trading Patterns

Shenzhen Ruby FC in-play and half-time data (50 games, 22 at home): they score before half-time in 73% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 75% of the time; BTTS occurs in 41% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 59% of games (home games); they fail to score in 32% of games.

Changchun Yatai in-play and half-time data (50 games, 22 at away): they score before half-time in 64% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 47% of the time; BTTS occurs in 68% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 68% of games (away games).

BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Shenzhen Ruby FC 54% versus Changchun Yatai 56%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Shenzhen Ruby FC 62% | Changchun Yatai 50%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Shenzhen Ruby FC 0.98 xG and Changchun Yatai 2.37 xG. These expected goals figures are the primary input: they feed a goal-probability matrix across all scoreline combinations to derive the result and market probabilities below. Underlying strength ratings: Shenzhen Ruby FC attack 0.639 / defence 1.334 | Changchun Yatai attack 1.245 / defence 1.099. League average goals — home 1.393 / away 1.429. Shenzhen Ruby FC's attack strength of 0.639 is below the league average — the 0.98 xG projection reflects a team that scores at a discount to the division norm. Changchun Yatai have an above-average attack strength of 1.245 — the away xG of 2.37 is driven by genuine attacking quality on the road. Data: 42 Shenzhen Ruby FC games / 43 Changchun Yatai games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Shenzhen Ruby FC 13% | Draw 19% | Changchun Yatai 68%. Fair-value odds: Shenzhen Ruby FC 7.69 | Draw 5.26 | Changchun Yatai 1.47. The model has a clear lean to Changchun Yatai (68%) — a 55pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 65% | BTTS probability 57% | Total xG 3.35. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 65% — a total xG of 3.35 means the expected score alone exceeds the 2.5 threshold, making the Over not just likely but structurally supported by both sides' attack/defence profiles. BTTS probability of 57% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Summary & Verdict

The Poisson model's primary lean is Changchun Yatai at 68% — clear model lean. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 19% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.

The Poisson model projects 3.35 xG in total — Over 2.5 at 65% — marginal — conflicting signals confidence, supported by form averaging 3.4 goals per game — though H2H averaging only 1.3 goals per meeting points in the other direction.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 57% on Yes. Form rates corroborate: Shenzhen Ruby FC 30% | Changchun Yatai 90% BTTS from recent games.
