Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Patro Eisden 1.76 xG and RSC Anderlecht II 1.52 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: Patro Eisden attack 1.016 / defence 1.044 | RSC Anderlecht II attack 1.075 / defence 1.123. League average goals — home 1.546 / away 1.358. Data: 32 Patro Eisden games / 32 RSC Anderlecht II games used (PrevSeason). Note: current-season sample is too small — prior-season data is carrying the calculation. Model confidence is reduced; treat probabilities as directional rather than precise.

Result probabilities: Patro Eisden 44% | Draw 23% | RSC Anderlecht II 34%. Fair-value odds: Patro Eisden 2.27 | Draw 4.35 | RSC Anderlecht II 2.94. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome exceeds 45%. The draw at 23% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 64% | BTTS probability 65% | Total xG 3.29. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 64% — the 3.29 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 65% reflects that both xG figures (1.76 / 1.52) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.

Picks & Verdict

On the Poisson output, Patro Eisden are the pick at 44% — marginal model lean. Draw probability of 23% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Patro Eisden if the outright odds are short. The opposing side holds a 34% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

On the goals line, Poisson's 3.29 combined xG gives a 64% probability to Over 2.5 — reasonable, supported by form averaging 3.6 goals per game.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 65%. Form rates corroborate: Patro Eisden 50% | RSC Anderlecht II 70% BTTS from recent games.

The Poisson model is drawing on PrevSeason data (32 games minimum) — early-season projections carry additional uncertainty. Weight the live form and odds signals accordingly.
