Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Korona Kielce 1.07 xG and Zaglebie Lubin 1.15 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: Korona Kielce attack 0.823 / defence 1.040 | Zaglebie Lubin attack 1.211 / defence 0.949. League average goals — home 1.370 / away 0.911. Zaglebie Lubin have an above-average attack rating of 1.211, which lifts their away xG to 1.15. Data: built from Korona Kielce's last 38 games and Zaglebie Lubin's last 39.

Result probabilities: Korona Kielce 33% | Draw 30% | Zaglebie Lubin 37%. Fair-value odds: Korona Kielce 3.02 | Draw 3.35 | Zaglebie Lubin 2.70. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome reaches 45%. The draw at 30% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 38% | BTTS Yes probability 45% | Total xG 2.22. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 62% — total xG of 2.22 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS No at 55% is only a slight lean — the model gives both sides a fair chance of scoring, so No isn't a clear standalone call.

Our Verdict

Poisson rates Zaglebie Lubin as the most likely outcome at 37% — marginal model lean. Recent form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. With a 30% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Zaglebie Lubin offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win. The opposing side holds a 33% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

Poisson projects 2.22 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 62% probability — a Poisson-only call with no corroboration from form or H2H.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is No at 55%. Form rates are neutral — both teams scored in: Korona Kielce 40% (last 10 home games) | Zaglebie Lubin 70% (last 10 away games).
