Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Patro Eisden 1.80 xG and Sporting Hasselt 1.20 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 1.014 / defence 1.039 | Sporting Hasselt attack 0.850 / defence 1.150. League average goals — home 1.547 / away 1.358. Data: 32 Patro Eisden games / 0 Sporting Hasselt 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 52% | Draw 23% | Sporting Hasselt 25%. Fair-value odds: Patro Eisden 1.92 | Draw 4.35 | Sporting Hasselt 4.00. Patro Eisden hold a narrow Poisson edge at 52% — the draw (23%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 58% | BTTS probability 58% | Total xG 3.00. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 58% — the 3.00 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS probability of 58% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Summary & Verdict

The Poisson model's primary lean is Patro Eisden at 52% — moderate model lean. With a 23% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Patro Eisden offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.

The Poisson model projects 3.00 xG in total — Over 2.5 at 58% — Poisson-only — limited corroboration confidence.

The Poisson model is drawing on PrevSeason data (0 games minimum) — early-season projections carry additional uncertainty. Weight the live form and odds signals accordingly.
