Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Hammarby FF 1.97 xG and BK Hacken 1.28 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: Hammarby FF attack 1.010 / defence 0.872 | BK Hacken attack 1.134 / defence 1.270. League average goals — home 1.536 / away 1.293. BK Hacken bring a strong defensive rating of 1.270 — this is suppressing Hammarby FF's projected output below what their attack strength alone would suggest. Data: 53 Hammarby FF games / 53 BK Hacken games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Hammarby FF 54% | Draw 22% | BK Hacken 25%. Fair-value odds: Hammarby FF 1.85 | Draw 4.55 | BK Hacken 4.00. Hammarby FF hold a narrow Poisson edge at 54% — the draw (22%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 63% | BTTS probability 62% | Total xG 3.25. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 63% — the 3.25 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 62% reflects that both xG figures (1.97 / 1.28) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.

Picks & Verdict

BK Hacken lead the H2H ledger, but Hammarby FF carry stronger current form — do not let history alone dictate your assessment.

On the Poisson output, Hammarby FF are the pick at 54% — moderate model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw probability of 22% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Hammarby FF if the outright odds are short.

On the goals line, Poisson's 3.25 combined xG gives a 63% probability to Over 2.5 — strong, supported by form averaging 3.0 goals per game and H2H averaging 3.2 goals per meeting.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 62%. Form rates are neutral: Hammarby FF 50% | BK Hacken 50%.
