SC Paderborn 07 — key trading statistics (44 games, 21 at away): they score before half-time in 76% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 82% of the time; BTTS occurs in 62% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 67% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 39%.
From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — Hertha BSC 64% and SC Paderborn 07 64% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. Over 2.5 goals is well-supported by both sides' in-play profiles (Hertha BSC 61% | SC Paderborn 07 73%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Hertha BSC 1.84 xG and SC Paderborn 07 1.38 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: Hertha BSC attack 1.075 / defence 1.009 | SC Paderborn 07 attack 1.028 / defence 0.996. League average goals — home 1.714 / away 1.328. Data: 10 Hertha BSC games / 44 SC Paderborn 07 games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Hertha BSC 47% | Draw 25% | SC Paderborn 07 28%. Fair-value odds: Hertha BSC 2.13 | Draw 4.00 | SC Paderborn 07 3.57. Hertha BSC hold a narrow Poisson edge at 47% — the draw (25%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 62% | BTTS probability 64% | Total xG 3.21. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 62% — the 3.21 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 64% reflects that both xG figures (1.84 / 1.38) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.
Final Verdict
Poisson rates Hertha BSC as the most likely outcome at 47% — moderate model lean. Draw probability of 25% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Hertha BSC 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.
The Poisson model projects 3.21 xG in total — Over 2.5 at 62% — reasonable confidence, supported by form averaging 3.0 goals per game.
Poisson assigns a 64% probability to BTTS Yes based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate: Hertha BSC 50% | SC Paderborn 07 80% BTTS from recent games.
