Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Lommel United 1.46 xG and Standard Liege 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: Lommel United attack 0.788 / defence 0.817 | Standard Liege attack 1.132 / defence 1.166. League average goals — home 1.582 / away 1.301. Lommel United's attack strength of 0.788 is below the league average — the 1.46 xG projection reflects a team that scores at a discount to the division norm. Data: 8 Lommel United games / 38 Standard Liege games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Lommel United 43% | Draw 26% | Standard Liege 31%. Fair-value odds: Lommel United 2.33 | Draw 3.85 | Standard Liege 3.23. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome exceeds 45%. The draw at 26% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 50% | BTTS probability 54% | Total xG 2.66. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 50%/50% — the total xG of 2.66 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 54% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Final Verdict

Poisson rates Lommel United as the most likely outcome at 43% — marginal model lean. Draw probability of 26% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Lommel United if the outright odds are short. The opposing side holds a 31% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

Poisson projects 2.66 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 50% probability — Poisson-only — limited corroboration conviction — though form averaging only 3.2 goals per game points in the other direction.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 54% on Yes. Form rates corroborate: Lommel United 40% | Standard Liege 90% BTTS from recent games.

The outsider holds a 31% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should not be treated as one. Proportionate stakes are appropriate given the genuine contest the data projects.
