Match Analysis
SK Beveren host Francs Borains at Freethielstadion in Challenger Pro League, Regular Season - 11. Kick-off is scheduled for Saturday 9 November 2024 at 19:00 UTC.
Form Guide
SK Beveren — All Games: 2W 4D 4L from 10 Challenger Pro League outings this season, averaging 1.00 points per game. Last five: L L L D L. They are averaging 0.90 goals per game and conceding 1.40 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. This season is still relatively young for SK Beveren, so this record blends games from this season and last.
In front of their own supporters this season, SK Beveren have posted 4W 3D 3L at Freethielstadion — 1.50 PPG. At home they are averaging 1.40 goals scored and 1.20 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their home matches — a rate that supports the Yes angle in this fixture. Their home PPG of 1.50 is noticeably stronger than their overall 1.00 — SK Beveren are significantly better at Freethielstadion than their overall form suggests.
Looking at all fixtures this season, Francs Borains stand at 2W 1D 7L from 10 Challenger Pro League matches — 0.70 PPG. Last five: L L L D L. Their scoring rate of 0.90 per game is modest, conceding 2.00 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. Conceding 2.00 per game is a high rate — their defensive vulnerabilities have been exposed regularly this season. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market. This season is still relatively young for Francs Borains, so this record blends games from this season and last.
Francs Borains's form when playing away from home: 4W 3D 3L across 10 road games this term (1.50 PPG). Away from home they average 1.60 goals scored and 2.10 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 80% of their away matches — a high BTTS rate on the road that directly informs this fixture. Their away PPG of 1.50 exceeds their overall 0.70 — they actually perform better on the road than their aggregate form implies.
The form figures are too closely matched to derive a directional pick: SK Beveren 1.00 PPG, Francs Borains 0.70 PPG. Look to other data sets to build the analysis.
The BTTS market is worth targeting here. SK Beveren register both teams scoring in 60% of relevant matches, Francs Borains in 80% (using home/away splits) — both sides above the 60% threshold gives BTTS Yes firm statistical grounding.
Head to Head
There is little to separate the sides historically. From 2 previous meetings, SK Beveren have won 1, Francs Borains 1, with 0 draws — a balanced ledger that offers no obvious directional steer on its own.
The 2 previous encounters between these sides have been high-scoring affairs — 3.0 goals per contest on average. Historical precedent backs the Over 2.5 goals market. The most recent clash, on 26 Jan 2024, ended 0–3 with Francs Borains winning.
With the win record balanced, the strongest H2H-derived signal is in the goals market. At 3.0 goals per game historically, Over 2.5 is the cleaner angle to extract from the head-to-head data.
Trading Patterns
SK Beveren in-play and half-time data (40 games, 20 at home): they score before half-time in 75% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 64% of the time; BTTS occurs in 60% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 60% of games (home games); they fail to score in 32% of games.
Francs Borains in-play and half-time data (40 games, 20 at away): they score before half-time in 85% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 90% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 50% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 60% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 70% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 35%; they fail to score in 35% of games.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — SK Beveren 50% versus Francs Borains 55%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (SK Beveren 55% | Francs Borains 65%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects SK Beveren 1.61 xG and Francs Borains 1.19 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: SK Beveren attack 0.895 / defence 0.922 | Francs Borains attack 0.955 / defence 1.276. League average goals — home 1.408 / away 1.349. Francs Borains bring a strong defensive rating of 1.276 — this is suppressing SK Beveren's projected output below what their attack strength alone would suggest. Data: 40 SK Beveren games / 40 Francs Borains games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: SK Beveren 47% | Draw 25% | Francs Borains 28%. Fair-value odds: SK Beveren 2.13 | Draw 4.00 | Francs Borains 3.57. SK Beveren hold a narrow Poisson edge at 47% — the draw (25%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 53% | BTTS probability 56% | Total xG 2.79. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 53%/47% — the total xG of 2.79 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 56% 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 SK Beveren at 47% — moderate model lean. With a 25% draw probability, Draw No Bet on SK Beveren 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.
Poisson projects 2.79 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 53% probability — reasonable conviction, supported by form averaging 3.2 goals per game.
The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 56%. Form rates corroborate: SK Beveren 60% | Francs Borains 80% BTTS from recent games.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
SK Beveren beat Francs Borains 4-0 at Freethielstadion, Regular Season - 11, in the Challenger Pro League. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting SK Beveren 1.61 xG and Francs Borains 1.19 xG, a combined 2.79. The scoreboard read 4-0 for 4 actual goals. SK Beveren beat their projection by 2.4 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in. Francs Borains landed 1.2 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of SK Beveren attack 0.90 / defence 0.92 against Francs Borains attack 0.95 / defence 1.28, drawn from 40/40 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it SK Beveren 47% | Draw 25% | Francs Borains 28%, with SK Beveren to win its most likely call at 47%. That is exactly how it finished — the model's leading outcome was vindicated.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 53%. The game delivered 4, so it went over — a call the model got right. Over 1.5 had been 77% and landed. Over 3.5 was 31% and came in. On both teams to score, the model sat at 56% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 60% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (SK Beveren 55%, Francs Borains 65%), a base rate that agreed with today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 52%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
SK Beveren's trading profile (40 games, 20 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 50% of their matches — today it did not.
Francs Borains's trading profile (40 games, 20 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 55% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 35% of games, a blank that repeated today.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — SK Beveren 1.38 PPG, Francs Borains 0.98 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the SK Beveren win broke the near-deadlock. SK Beveren (home/away splits) scored 4 against a 1.55 average — above their attacking norm and conceded 0 against a 1.30 average — tighter than their form line. Francs Borains (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.30 scoring average — below par going forward and shipped 4 against a 1.95 concession average — a leakier day than usual.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 2 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (hit), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (miss). The model got the gist right while missing on the margins.
