Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Preußen Münster 1.08 xG and 1. FC Kaiserslautern 1.32 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: Preußen Münster attack 0.713 / defence 0.961 | 1. FC Kaiserslautern attack 1.068 / defence 1.006. League average goals — home 1.514 / away 1.288. Preußen Münster's attack rating of 0.713 is below the league average, which holds their xG down at 1.08. Data: built from Preußen Münster's last 2 games and 1. FC Kaiserslautern's last 36. Some of those games are older results, so treat these probabilities as directional rather than precise.

Result probabilities: Preußen Münster 29% | Draw 31% | 1. FC Kaiserslautern 40%. Fair-value odds: Preußen Münster 3.47 | Draw 3.24 | 1. FC Kaiserslautern 2.48. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome reaches 45%. The draw at 31% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 43% | BTTS Yes probability 50% | Total xG 2.41. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 57% — total xG of 2.41 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS Yes at 50% is only a slight lean — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Final Verdict

Poisson rates 1. FC Kaiserslautern as the most likely outcome at 40% — marginal model lean. Recent form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw probability of 31% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on 1. FC Kaiserslautern if the outright odds are short. The opposing side holds a 29% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

The Poisson model projects 2.41 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 57% — a Poisson-only call with no corroboration from form or H2H.

The Poisson model's sample (Preußen Münster 2 games, 1. FC Kaiserslautern 36) includes some older results, so its projections carry extra uncertainty — weight recent form and the odds accordingly.
