Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Slask Wroclaw 1.13 xG and Legia Warszawa 1.22 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: Slask Wroclaw attack 0.932 / defence 0.965 | Legia Warszawa attack 1.191 / defence 0.878. League average goals — home 1.379 / away 1.063.

Result probabilities: Slask Wroclaw 32% | Draw 32% | Legia Warszawa 36%. Fair-value odds: Slask Wroclaw 3.12 | Draw 3.12 | Legia Warszawa 2.78. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome exceeds 45%. The draw at 32% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 42% | BTTS probability 50% | Total xG 2.35. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 58% — total xG of 2.35 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 50% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Picks & Verdict

On the Poisson output, Legia Warszawa are the pick at 36% — marginal model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw probability of 32% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Legia Warszawa if the outright odds are short. The opposing side holds a 32% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

Poisson projects 2.35 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 42% probability — reasonable conviction, supported by H2H averaging 1.7 goals per meeting.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 50% on No. Form rates are neutral: Slask Wroclaw 50% | Legia Warszawa 60%.

The outsider holds a 32% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should not be treated as one. Proportionate stakes are appropriate given the genuine contest the data projects.
