Oxford United have collected 1.90 PPG across 10 League One outings this season: 5W 4D 1L. Last five: D W D W D. Offensively they are averaging 1.80 goals per game, with 1.00 conceded. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. Both teams have scored in 70% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets. This season is still relatively young for Oxford United, so this record blends games from this season and last.
Oxford United at Kassam Stadium this season: 4W 5D 1L from 10 home games — 1.70 PPG on home soil. At home they are averaging 1.60 goals scored and 0.80 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their home matches — a rate that supports the Yes angle in this fixture.
Stockport County (all games): 6W 2D 2L across 10 League One outings this term — 2.00 points per game. Last five: W W W W D. Their attacking form is sharp — 2.00 goals per game is a high-output rate that commands respect in the goals markets. 5 clean sheets from 10 games (50%) is an exceptional defensive record — they are keeping clean sheets more often than not. This season is still relatively young for Stockport County, so this record blends games from this season and last.
On the road, Stockport County have gone 5W 3D 2L from 10 away fixtures this term (1.80 PPG). They are averaging 1.80 goals per away game — strong road scoring that makes them a threat even without home support. 4 clean sheets from 10 away games (40%) shows they are capable of shutting up shop on the road.
A near-identical PPG reading — 1.90 for Oxford United, 2.00 for Stockport County — means the form record is uninstructive on result selection. The goals and market sections will carry greater evidential weight.
Trading & In-Play
Oxford United — key trading statistics (56 games, 28 at home): they score before half-time in 79% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 54% of the time; BTTS occurs in 50% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 46% of games (home games); they fail to score in 36% of games.
Stockport County — key trading statistics (56 games, 28 at away): they score before half-time in 61% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 81% of the time; BTTS occurs in 50% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 54% of games (away games).
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Oxford United 55% versus Stockport County 55%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Oxford United 50% | Stockport County 55%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Oxford United 1.02 xG and Stockport County 1.41 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: Oxford United attack 0.997 / defence 0.939 | Stockport County attack 1.164 / defence 0.746. League average goals — home 1.372 / away 1.287. Stockport County's defence strength of 0.746 is below average — they are conceding at a rate that inflates the home xG figure. Data: 10 Oxford United games / 58 Stockport County games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Oxford United 26% | Draw 30% | Stockport County 45%. Fair-value odds: Oxford United 3.85 | Draw 3.33 | Stockport County 2.22. Stockport County hold a narrow Poisson edge at 45% — the draw (30%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 44% | BTTS probability 50% | Total xG 2.43. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 56% — total xG of 2.43 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 50% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Picks & Verdict
On the Poisson output, Stockport County are the pick at 45% — moderate model lean. Draw probability of 30% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Stockport County if the outright odds are short.
On the goals line, Poisson's 2.43 combined xG gives a 44% probability to Under 2.5 — Poisson-only — limited corroboration.
The Poisson model's BTTS call is No at 50%. Form rates are neutral: Oxford United 60% | Stockport County 50%.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Oxford United beat Stockport County 1-0 at Kassam Stadium, Regular Season - 9, in the League One. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Oxford United 1.02 xG and Stockport County 1.41 xG, a combined 2.43. The scoreboard read 1-0 for 1 actual goal.

On the result, the model split it Oxford United 26% | Draw 30% | Stockport County 45%, with Stockport County to win its most likely call at 45%. The actual Oxford United win had been the model's second-ranked read at 26%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
