Analysis & Preview
Samsunspor travel to Yeni Sivas 4 Eylül Stadyumu to take on Sivasspor in Süper Lig (matchday 1). The game is scheduled for Sunday 13 August 2023 at 18:15 UK time.
Form Analysis
Looking at their last 10 matches, Sivasspor stand at 3W 2D 5L — 1.10 PPG. Last five: L L L W D. They are averaging 1.20 goals per game and conceding 1.60 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings (10%). Both teams have scored in 70% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets.
Sivasspor's home record over their last 10 home games: 4W 2D 4L (1.40 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.40 goals scored and 1.20 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 70% of their home games — an outstanding BTTS rate that is a key data point for this fixture.
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Sivasspor 1.78 xG and Samsunspor 1.16 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: Sivasspor attack 0.941 / defence 0.919 | Samsunspor attack 0.850 / defence 1.150. League average goals — home 1.648 / away 1.491. Data: built from Sivasspor's last 36 games and Samsunspor's last 0. Some of those games are older results, so treat these probabilities as directional rather than precise.
Result probabilities: Sivasspor 51% | Draw 24% | Samsunspor 24%. Fair-value odds: Sivasspor 1.94 | Draw 4.16 | Samsunspor 4.09. Sivasspor hold a narrow Poisson edge at 51% — the draw (24%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 56% | BTTS Yes probability 58% | Total xG 2.95. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 56% — the 2.95 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 58% is only a slight lean — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Summary & Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is Sivasspor at 51% — moderate model lean. With a 24% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Sivasspor offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.
The Poisson model projects 2.95 xG in total — Over 2.5 at 56% — a Poisson-only call with no corroboration from form or H2H.
The Poisson model's sample (Sivasspor 36 games, Samsunspor 0) includes some older results, so its projections carry extra uncertainty — weight recent form and the odds accordingly.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Sivasspor and Samsunspor finished level at 1-1 at Yeni Sivas 4 Eylül Stadyumu, Regular Season - 1, in the Süper Lig. 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 Sivasspor 1.78 xG and Samsunspor 1.16 xG, a combined 2.95. The scoreboard read 1-1 for 2 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 Sivasspor attack 0.94 / defence 0.92 against Samsunspor attack 0.85 / defence 1.15, drawn from 36/0 games (PrevSeason).
On the result, the model split it Sivasspor 51% | Draw 24% | Samsunspor 24%, with Sivasspor to win its most likely call at 51%. Instead the game produced a draw, an outcome the model had rated at just 24% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 56%. The game delivered 2, so it stayed under — a miss for the goals model. Over 1.5 had been 80% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 58% and the match saw both sides score — another call in the model's favour.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 1 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (hit). A poor return for the projections: the match defied the majority of what the numbers expected.
