H2H

There is little to separate the sides in our head-to-head data. From 5 H2H matches, Lommel United have won 3, Deinze 1, with 1 draw — a balanced record that offers no clear steer on its own.

The 5 H2H matches in our data have been high-scoring — 2.8 goals per game on average — which backs the Over 2.5 market from the head-to-head side. The most recent of those, on 14 Apr 2023, ended Lommel United 4–1 Deinze — a Lommel United win.

With the win record balanced, the strongest H2H signal is in the goals market — at 2.8 goals per game, Over 2.5 is the cleaner angle from the head-to-head data.

Trading Patterns

Lommel United in-play and half-time data (last 34 games, 17 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 53% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 100% of the time; BTTS occurs in 53% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 47% of games (home games).

Deinze in-play and half-time data (last 34 games, 17 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 65% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 75% of the time; of the 12 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 25%; BTTS occurs in 47% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 47% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 35%.

BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Lommel United 50% versus Deinze 62%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Lommel United 56% | Deinze 62%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Lommel United 1.52 xG and Deinze 1.12 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: Lommel United attack 1.006 / defence 0.779 | Deinze attack 0.858 / defence 1.189. League average goals — home 1.269 / away 1.674. Lommel United have a tight defence (rating 0.779), which is pulling Deinze's projected output down. Data: built from Lommel United's last 24 games and Deinze's last 24. Some of those games are older results, so treat these probabilities as directional rather than precise.

Result probabilities: Lommel United 46% | Draw 26% | Deinze 28%. Fair-value odds: Lommel United 2.15 | Draw 3.91 | Deinze 3.57. Lommel United hold a narrow Poisson edge at 46% — the draw (26%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 49% | BTTS Yes probability 53% | Total xG 2.64. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 49%/51% — the total xG of 2.64 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS Yes at 53% is only a slight lean — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Our Verdict

Poisson rates Lommel United as the most likely outcome at 46% — moderate model lean. With a 26% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Lommel United offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win. The opposing side holds a 28% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

On the goals line, Poisson's 2.64 combined xG gives a 51% probability to Under 2.5 — low conviction — though the H2H data averaging 2.8 goals per game across 5 H2H matches points the other way.

Poisson assigns a 53% probability to BTTS Yes based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Lommel United 50% (last 10 home games) | Deinze 60% (last 10 away games).

The Poisson model's sample (Lommel United 24 games, Deinze 24) includes some older results, so its projections carry extra uncertainty — weight recent form and the odds accordingly.
