Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects K. Lierse S.K. 1.40 xG and Club Brugge II 1.58 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: K. Lierse S.K. attack 0.854 / defence 1.126 | Club Brugge II attack 1.011 / defence 1.235. League average goals — home 1.330 / away 1.392. Club Brugge II's defence rating of 1.235 (above 1 = concedes more than average) is pushing K. Lierse S.K.'s projected output up. Data: built from K. Lierse S.K.'s last 54 games and Club Brugge II's last 55.

Result probabilities: K. Lierse S.K. 34% | Draw 24% | Club Brugge II 42%. Fair-value odds: K. Lierse S.K. 2.95 | Draw 4.12 | Club Brugge II 2.39. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome reaches 45%. The draw at 24% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 57% | BTTS Yes probability 60% | Total xG 2.99. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 57% — the 2.99 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 60% — both xG figures (1.40 / 1.58) are high enough that each side is projected to find the net.

Analysis Verdict

On the Poisson output, Club Brugge II are the pick at 42% — marginal model lean. With a 24% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Club Brugge II offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win. The opposing side holds a 34% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

Poisson projects 2.99 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 57% probability — strong conviction, supported by recent form (K. Lierse S.K.'s last 10 home games and Club Brugge II's last 10 away games) averaging 2.9 goals per game and the H2H data averaging 3.0 goals per game across 9 H2H matches.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 60%. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: K. Lierse S.K. 50% (last 10 home games) | Club Brugge II 70% (last 10 away games).
