Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Erzurumspor FK 0.92 xG and Beşiktaş 1.62 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: Erzurumspor FK attack 0.696 / defence 1.407 | Beşiktaş attack 0.928 / defence 0.895. League average goals — home 1.470 / away 1.243. Erzurumspor FK's attack strength of 0.696 is below the league average — the 0.92 xG projection reflects a team that scores at a discount to the division norm. Data: 3 Erzurumspor FK games / 37 Beşiktaş games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Erzurumspor FK 21% | Draw 25% | Beşiktaş 54%. Fair-value odds: Erzurumspor FK 4.76 | Draw 4.00 | Beşiktaş 1.85. Beşiktaş hold a narrow Poisson edge at 54% — the draw (25%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 47% | BTTS probability 48% | Total xG 2.54. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 47%/53% — the total xG of 2.54 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 48% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Picks & Verdict

On the Poisson output, Beşiktaş are the pick at 54% — moderate model lean. Draw probability of 25% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Beşiktaş if the outright odds are short.

On the goals line, Poisson's 2.54 combined xG gives a 47% probability to Under 2.5 — Poisson-only — limited corroboration.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is No at 48%. Form rates corroborate: Erzurumspor FK 25% | Beşiktaş 50% BTTS from recent games.
