Offensively they are averaging 1.70 goals per game, with 1.50 conceded. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings (20%).

Drogheda United's form when playing at home: 4W 3D 3L across their last 10 home games (1.50 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.50 goals scored and 1.00 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their home matches — a rate that supports the Yes angle in this fixture.
Bohemians's record over their last 10 games: 3W 5D 2L (1.40 PPG). Last five: W W D D L. They are scoring at 1.50 per game and conceding 1.50. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings (30%). Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market.

A near-identical PPG reading — 1.50 for Drogheda United, 1.40 for Bohemians — means the form record is uninstructive on result selection. The goals and market sections will carry greater evidential weight.
Trading & In-Play
Drogheda United — key trading statistics (last 65 games, 33 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 64% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 86% of the time; of the 11 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 27%; of the 25 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 28%; BTTS occurs in 48% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 36% of games (home games); they fail to score in 32% of games.
Bohemians — key trading statistics (last 65 games, 33 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 58% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 87% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 52% of those occasions; of the 22 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 32%; of the 19 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 26%; BTTS occurs in 52% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 36% of games (away games).
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Drogheda United 52% versus Bohemians 55%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Drogheda United 43% | Bohemians 48%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Drogheda United 1.34 xG and Bohemians 0.95 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: Drogheda United attack 0.976 / defence 1.024 | Bohemians attack 0.848 / defence 0.927. League average goals — home 1.484 / away 1.099. Data: built from Drogheda United's last 65 games and Bohemians's last 65.
Result probabilities: Drogheda United 45% | Draw 28% | Bohemians 26%. Fair-value odds: Drogheda United 2.21 | Draw 3.51 | Bohemians 3.82. Drogheda United hold a narrow Poisson edge at 45% — the draw (28%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 40% | BTTS Yes probability 46% | Total xG 2.30. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 60% — total xG of 2.30 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS No at 54% is only a slight lean — the model gives both sides a fair chance of scoring, so No isn't a clear standalone call.
Picks & Verdict
On the Poisson output, Drogheda United are the pick at 45% — moderate model lean. Draw probability of 28% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Drogheda United if the outright odds are short.
On the goals line, Poisson's 2.30 combined xG gives a 60% probability to Under 2.5 — a Poisson-only call with no corroboration from form or H2H.
The Poisson model's BTTS call is No at 54%. Form rates are neutral — both teams scored in: Drogheda United 60% (last 10 home games) | Bohemians 50% (last 10 away games).

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Drogheda United and Bohemians finished level at 0-0 at Weavers Park, Regular Season - 31, in the Premier Division. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Drogheda United 1.34 xG and Bohemians 0.95 xG, a combined 2.30. The scoreboard read 0-0 for 0 actual goals. Drogheda United fell 1.3 short of their projected output. Bohemians landed 1.0 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Drogheda United attack 0.98 / defence 1.02 against Bohemians attack 0.85 / defence 0.93, drawn from 65/65 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Drogheda United 45% | Draw 28% | Bohemians 26%, with Drogheda United to win its most likely call at 45%. The actual draw had been the model's second-ranked read at 28%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 40%. The game delivered 0, so it stayed under — a call the model got right. Over 1.5 had been 67% and missed.

Historically the two sides average 45% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Drogheda United 43%, Bohemians 48%), a base rate that agreed with today's under.
