Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets.

Their scoring rate of 0.60 per game is modest, conceding 0.90 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 5 clean sheets from 10 games (50%) is an exceptional defensive record — they are keeping clean sheets more often than not.

There is minimal separation in the form figures — Mlada Boleslav at 0.90 PPG versus Dukla Praha's 0.90. The form guide is not providing a strong directional steer; the model and market data will carry more weight in the final assessment.

Head to Head

There is little to separate the sides in our head-to-head data. From 1 H2H match, Mlada Boleslav have won 1, Dukla Praha 0, with 0 draws — a balanced record that offers no clear steer on its own. With only 1 H2H match to go on, treat this as a light input.

The 1 H2H match in our data have been tight, averaging just 1.0 goals per game — a meaningful input for the Under 2.5 market. The most recent of those, on 2 Nov 2024, ended Mlada Boleslav 1–0 Dukla Praha — a Mlada Boleslav win.

With a balanced win record and just 1.0 goals per game, the H2H data points toward a tight, low-scoring contest — Under 2.5 is the stronger head-to-head angle regardless of which side wins.

Trading Patterns

Mlada Boleslav in-play and half-time data (last 27 games, 13 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 85% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 80% of the time; of the 7 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 29%; BTTS occurs in 46% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 62% of games (home games).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Mlada Boleslav 1.38 xG and Dukla Praha 0.85 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: Mlada Boleslav attack 0.978 / defence 1.108 | Dukla Praha attack 0.663 / defence 1.014. League average goals — home 1.387 / away 1.151. Dukla Praha's attack rating of 0.663 is below the league average, which holds their xG down at 0.85. Data: built from Mlada Boleslav's last 57 games and Dukla Praha's last 27.

Result probabilities: Mlada Boleslav 48% | Draw 30% | Dukla Praha 22%. Fair-value odds: Mlada Boleslav 2.09 | Draw 3.30 | Dukla Praha 4.60. Mlada Boleslav hold a narrow Poisson edge at 48% — the draw (30%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 38% | BTTS Yes probability 44% | Total xG 2.22. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 62% — total xG of 2.22 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS No at 56% is only a slight lean — the model gives both sides a fair chance of scoring, so No isn't a clear standalone call.

Our Verdict

Poisson rates Mlada Boleslav as the most likely outcome at 48% — moderate model lean. With a 30% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Mlada Boleslav offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.

The Poisson model projects 2.22 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 62% — a Poisson-only call with no corroboration from form or H2H.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 56% on No. Form rates are neutral — both teams scored in: Mlada Boleslav 60% (last 10 home games) | Dukla Praha 50% (last 10 away games).
