Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Deportivo La Coruna 1.58 xG and Malaga 1.09 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: Deportivo La Coruna attack 0.850 / defence 1.150 | Malaga attack 0.850 / defence 1.150. League average goals — home 1.617 / away 1.119. Data: 0 Deportivo La Coruna games / 0 Malaga games used (PrevSeason). Note: current-season sample is too small — prior-season data is carrying the calculation. Model confidence is reduced; treat probabilities as directional rather than precise.
Result probabilities: Deportivo La Coruna 49% | Draw 25% | Malaga 26%. Fair-value odds: Deportivo La Coruna 2.04 | Draw 4.00 | Malaga 3.85. Deportivo La Coruna hold a narrow Poisson edge at 49% — the draw (25%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 50% | BTTS probability 53% | Total xG 2.67. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 50%/50% — the total xG of 2.67 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 53% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Our Verdict
Poisson rates Deportivo La Coruna as the most likely outcome at 49% — moderate model lean. With a 25% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Deportivo La Coruna offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.
On the goals line, Poisson's 2.67 combined xG gives a 50% probability to Over 2.5 — Poisson-only — limited corroboration.
The Poisson model is drawing on PrevSeason data (0 games minimum) — early-season projections carry additional uncertainty. Weight the live form and odds signals accordingly.
