Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Asteras Tripolis 1.70 xG and Lamia 1.21 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: Asteras Tripolis attack 0.949 / defence 1.347 | Lamia attack 0.815 / defence 1.112. League average goals — home 1.611 / away 1.099. Asteras Tripolis's defence rating of 1.347 (above 1 = concedes more than average) is pushing Lamia's projected output up. Data: built from Asteras Tripolis's last 34 games and Lamia's last 34.

Result probabilities: Asteras Tripolis 46% | Draw 31% | Lamia 24%. Fair-value odds: Asteras Tripolis 2.19 | Draw 3.26 | Lamia 4.21. Asteras Tripolis hold a narrow Poisson edge at 46% — the draw (31%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 56% | BTTS Yes probability 61% | Total xG 2.91. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 56% — the 2.91 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 61% — both xG figures (1.70 / 1.21) are high enough that each side is projected to find the net.

Analysis Verdict

On the Poisson output, Asteras Tripolis are the pick at 46% — moderate model lean. With a 31% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Asteras Tripolis offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.

Poisson projects 2.91 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 56% probability — mixed conviction, supported by recent form (Asteras Tripolis's last 10 home games and Lamia's last 10 away games) averaging 2.7 goals per game — though the H2H data averaging only 1.3 goals per game across 6 H2H matches points the other way.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 61%. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Asteras Tripolis 60% (last 10 home games) | Lamia 70% (last 10 away games).
