✍️ Match Preview
Analysis
FC St. Pauli make the trip to Europa-Park Stadion to face SC Freiburg in Bundesliga, Regular Season - 5. The match kicks off on Saturday 28 September 2024 at 14:30 UTC.
Form
SC Freiburg (all games): 4W 3D 3L across 10 Bundesliga fixtures this term — 1.50 PPG. Last five: L W L W W. They are averaging 1.30 goals per game and conceding 1.00 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets. SC Freiburg have played only a handful of Bundesliga games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.
In front of their own supporters this season, SC Freiburg have posted 2W 4D 4L at Europa-Park Stadion — 1.00 PPG. At home they are averaging 1.70 goals scored and 2.10 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 100% of their home games — an outstanding BTTS rate that is a key data point for this fixture. Somewhat surprisingly, their home PPG of 1.00 lags behind their overall 1.50 — the home advantage has not translated into superior results at Europa-Park Stadion this season.
FC St. Pauli have collected 1.30 PPG across 10 Bundesliga outings this season: 4W 1D 5L. Last five: W L L L D. Their scoring rate of 1.20 per game is modest, conceding 1.40 — 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. FC St. Pauli have played only a handful of Bundesliga games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.
When travelling in Bundesliga this season, FC St. Pauli have posted 4W 0D 6L from 10 away outings — 1.20 PPG. Away from home they average 1.30 goals scored and 1.60 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context.
Both sides are running at similar form levels — 1.50 PPG for SC Freiburg against 1.30 for FC St. Pauli. There is no clear form edge to exploit here; other signals need to take the lead.
In terms of goals, both squads have been finding the net consistently (using home/away splits) — SC Freiburg have seen both teams score in 100% of their games, FC St. Pauli in 60%. That combined rate is a strong statistical case for BTTS Yes as a standalone play.
Trading Data
SC Freiburg goal-timing and half-time pattern breakdown (38 games, 19 at home): they score before half-time in 84% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 67% of the time; BTTS occurs in 79% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 63% of games (home games).
FC St. Pauli goal-timing and half-time pattern breakdown (38 games, 19 at away): they score before half-time in 68% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 62% of the time; BTTS occurs in 68% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 58% of games (away games).
From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — SC Freiburg 60% and FC St. Pauli 60% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (SC Freiburg 66% | FC St. Pauli 53%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects SC Freiburg 2.15 xG and FC St. Pauli 1.01 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: SC Freiburg attack 1.080 / defence 0.920 | FC St. Pauli attack 0.674 / defence 1.173. League average goals — home 1.700 / away 1.630. Data: 38 SC Freiburg games / 4 FC St. Pauli games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: SC Freiburg 61% | Draw 24% | FC St. Pauli 14%. Fair-value odds: SC Freiburg 1.64 | Draw 4.17 | FC St. Pauli 7.14. The model has a clear lean to SC Freiburg (61%) — a 47pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 61% | BTTS probability 59% | Total xG 3.16. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 61% — the 3.16 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS probability of 59% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Picks & Verdict
On the Poisson output, SC Freiburg are the pick at 61% — clear model lean. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 24% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.
On the goals line, Poisson's 3.16 combined xG gives a 61% probability to Over 2.5 — reasonable, supported by form averaging 3.3 goals per game.
The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 59%. Form rates corroborate: SC Freiburg 100% | FC St. Pauli 60% BTTS from recent games.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
FC St. Pauli beat SC Freiburg 0-3 at Europa-Park Stadion, Regular Season - 5, in the Bundesliga. That is the final score; the rest of this report grades it against what the data forecast beforehand.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting SC Freiburg 2.15 xG and FC St. Pauli 1.01 xG, a combined 3.16. The scoreboard read 0-3 for 3 actual goals. SC Freiburg fell 2.2 short of their projected output. FC St. Pauli outscored their 1.01 projection by 2.0. Those figures were built on strength ratings of SC Freiburg attack 1.08 / defence 0.92 against FC St. Pauli attack 0.67 / defence 1.17, drawn from 38/4 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it SC Freiburg 61% | Draw 24% | FC St. Pauli 14%, with SC Freiburg to win its most likely call at 61%. Instead the game produced a FC St. Pauli win, an outcome the model had rated at just 14% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 61%. The game delivered 3, so it went over — the model's lean was correct. Over 1.5 had been 85% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 59% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 59% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (SC Freiburg 66%, FC St. Pauli 53%), a base rate that agreed with today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 60%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
SC Freiburg's trading profile (38 games, 19 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 60% of their matches — today it did not.
FC St. Pauli's trading profile (38 games, 19 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 60% of their matches — today it did not.
Form vs Result
On form, FC St. Pauli arrived the stronger side — 1.84 PPG against 1.34. The form guide was vindicated by the result. SC Freiburg (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.74 scoring average — below par going forward and shipped 3 against a 1.68 concession average — a leakier day than usual. FC St. Pauli (home/away splits) scored 3 against a 1.47 average — above their attacking norm and conceded 0 against a 1.32 average — tighter than their form line.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 2 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (miss), form (hit). A mixed scorecard — the data caught the broad shape of the game but not every market.
