Full Analysis
Stade Municipal plays host to Yverdon Sport versus Grasshoppers in Super League, Regular Season - 6. Kick-off: Saturday 31 August 2024 at 17:00 UTC.
Current Form
Yverdon Sport's overall Super League record this term: 2W 3D 5L from 10 games (0.90 PPG). Last five: L L D D L. They are averaging 1.10 goals per game and conceding 1.60 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. Yverdon Sport have played only a handful of Super League games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.
Yverdon Sport at Stade Municipal this season: 6W 2D 2L from 10 home games — 2.00 PPG on home soil. At home they are averaging 1.90 goals scored and 1.30 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their home matches — a rate that supports the Yes angle in this fixture. Their home PPG of 2.00 is noticeably stronger than their overall 0.90 — Yverdon Sport are significantly better at Stade Municipal than their overall form suggests.
Grasshoppers (all games): 3W 3D 4L across 10 Super League outings this term — 1.20 points per game. Last five: L D L L W. Their scoring rate of 1.10 per game is modest, conceding 1.20 — 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. Grasshoppers have played only a handful of Super League games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.
Grasshoppers's form when playing away from home: 1W 3D 6L across 10 road games this term (0.60 PPG). Away from home they average 0.70 goals scored and 1.50 conceded per game. Their away PPG of 0.60 is notably below their overall 1.20 — form away from home has been a clear weakness this season.
Neither side holds a meaningful form edge. The 0.90 vs 1.20 PPG split is negligible — model and market signals should carry more analytical weight for this one.
Head-to-Head
Form and model data should carry more weight here — the historical record is too balanced to provide a directional steer. From 4 meetings: Yverdon Sport 1W, Grasshoppers 2W, 1D.
Attacking output has been a hallmark of this fixture. At 3.0 goals per game across 4 meetings, the Over 2.5 has a statistically grounded case from the head-to-head record alone. The most recent clash, on 14 May 2024, ended 0–2 with Grasshoppers winning.
With the win record balanced, the strongest H2H-derived signal is in the goals market. At 3.0 goals per game historically, Over 2.5 is the cleaner angle to extract from the head-to-head data.
Trading & In-Play
Yverdon Sport — key trading statistics (43 games, 21 at home): they score before half-time in 86% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 62% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 50% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 62% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 76% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 40%; they fail to score in 33% of games.
Grasshoppers — key trading statistics (43 games, 21 at away): they score before half-time in 67% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 85% of the time; BTTS occurs in 43% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 43% of games (away games); they fail to score in 42% of games.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Yverdon Sport 60% versus Grasshoppers 49%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Yverdon Sport 63% | Grasshoppers 44%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Yverdon Sport 1.46 xG and Grasshoppers 1.10 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: Yverdon Sport attack 0.910 / defence 1.120 | Grasshoppers attack 0.760 / defence 0.909. League average goals — home 1.768 / away 1.291. Data: 38 Yverdon Sport games / 38 Grasshoppers games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Yverdon Sport 45% | Draw 26% | Grasshoppers 28%. Fair-value odds: Yverdon Sport 2.22 | Draw 3.85 | Grasshoppers 3.57. Yverdon Sport hold a narrow Poisson edge at 45% — the draw (26%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 47% | BTTS probability 51% | Total xG 2.56. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 47%/53% — the total xG of 2.56 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 51% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is Yverdon Sport at 45% — moderate model lean. Draw probability of 26% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Yverdon Sport if the outright odds are short. The opposing side holds a 28% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.
Poisson projects 2.56 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 47% probability — Poisson-only — limited corroboration conviction — though H2H averaging only 3.0 goals per meeting points in the other direction.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 51% on Yes. Form rates corroborate: Yverdon Sport 60% | Grasshoppers 50% BTTS from recent games.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Yverdon Sport beat Grasshoppers 2-1 at Stade Municipal, Regular Season - 6, in the Super League. 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 Yverdon Sport 1.46 xG and Grasshoppers 1.10 xG, a combined 2.56. The scoreboard read 2-1 for 3 actual goals. Both sides finished within a goal of their individual projections, so the scoreline sat close to the model's expected shape. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Yverdon Sport attack 0.91 / defence 1.12 against Grasshoppers attack 0.76 / defence 0.91, drawn from 38/38 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Yverdon Sport 45% | Draw 26% | Grasshoppers 28%, with Yverdon Sport to win its most likely call at 45%. The scoreboard confirmed the model's leading pick.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 47%. The game delivered 3, so it went over — a miss for the goals model. Over 1.5 had been 72% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 51% and the match saw both sides score — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 54% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Yverdon Sport 63%, Grasshoppers 44%), a base rate that agreed with today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 55%, which matched the both-scored outcome.

Yverdon Sport's trading profile (43 games, 21 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 60% of their matches — today it did.

Form vs Result
