✍️ Match Preview

Fixture Analysis

Longford Town welcome Bohemians to Bishopsgate Stadium in Premier Division (matchday 11). Kick-off is Saturday 15 May 2021 at 19:00 UK time.

H2H

There is little to separate the sides in our head-to-head data. From 1 H2H match, Longford Town have won 0, Bohemians 0, with 1 draw — 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 high-scoring — 4.0 goals per game on average — which backs the Over 2.5 market from the head-to-head side. The most recent of those, on 27 Mar 2021, ended Longford Town 2–2 Bohemians — a draw.

With the win record balanced, the strongest H2H signal is in the goals market — at 4.0 goals per game, Over 2.5 is the cleaner angle from the head-to-head data.

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Longford Town 0.79 xG and Bohemians 1.05 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: Longford Town attack 0.863 / defence 1.174 | Bohemians attack 0.691 / defence 1.092. League average goals — home 0.834 / away 1.301. Bohemians's attack rating of 0.691 is below the league average, which holds their xG down at 1.05. Data: built from Longford Town's last 10 games and Bohemians's last 10.

Result probabilities: Longford Town 25% | Draw 36% | Bohemians 39%. Fair-value odds: Longford Town 4.02 | Draw 2.80 | Bohemians 2.54. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome reaches 45%. The draw at 36% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 28% | BTTS Yes probability 37% | Total xG 1.84. Under 2.5 is the strongly backed market at 72% probability — total xG of 1.84 sits well below the 2.5 threshold. The model is projecting a tight, low-scoring match. BTTS No at 63% is only a slight lean — the model gives both sides a fair chance of scoring, so No isn't a clear standalone call.

Analysis Verdict

On the Poisson output, Bohemians are the pick at 39% — marginal model lean. With a 36% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Bohemians offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.

On the goals line, Poisson's 1.84 combined xG gives a 72% probability to Under 2.5 — a Poisson-only call with no corroboration from form or H2H.

💡 Key Insights

H2H The H2H record is evenly balanced (Longford Town 0W, 1D, Bohemians 0W from the 1 H2H match in our data), with no clear advantage.
Goals The H2H data averages 4.00 goals/game but Poisson xG is only 1.84 — the model's defensive ratings are pulling the projection below the head-to-head norm.
BTTS The H2H BTTS rate (100%) is contradicted by Poisson (BTTS Yes 37%) — current defensive strength has changed the dynamic.
Prediction Poisson model shows elevated draw probability at 36% — tight contest expected.
Goals Poisson Over 2.5 probability is only 28% — the model points to Under 2.5 (72%).
