Cavalry FC have collected 1.50 PPG across 10 Canadian Premier League outings this season: 4W 3D 3L. Last five: D D W W L. Offensively they are averaging 1.90 goals per game, with 1.60 conceded. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation.

Their home PPG of 2.00 is noticeably stronger than their overall 1.50 — Cavalry FC are significantly better at ATCO Field than their overall form suggests.

Atlético Ottawa (all games): 6W 4D 0L across 10 Canadian Premier League outings this term — 2.20 points per game. Last five: D D W W W. They are scoring at 1.90 per game and conceding 0.90. 4 clean sheets in 10 outings (40%) underlines their defensive solidity.

Atlético Ottawa's form when playing away from home: 6W 3D 1L across 10 road games this term (2.10 PPG). Away from home they average 1.50 goals scored and 0.90 conceded per game. 5 away clean sheets from 10 games (50%) — they are as difficult to score against on the road as they are at home.

The travelling side arrive in better shape. Atlético Ottawa are 0.70 PPG clear of Cavalry FC in recent Canadian Premier League fixtures (2.20 vs 1.50). Backing the visitors outright or on Draw No Bet are both valid approaches where the price allows.

H2H History

Across the last 8 meetings, Atlético Ottawa have the stronger historical record — 4 wins to Cavalry FC's 1, with 3 draws in the mix.

These two sides have produced goals at a consistent rate historically, averaging 3.1 per game across 8 meetings. That scoring profile provides genuine support for the Over 2.5 angle. The most recent clash, on 9 Nov 2025, ended 1–2 with Atlético Ottawa winning.

The H2H provides genuine backing for the away side. Atlético Ottawa have won 4 of 8 previous encounters, and at 3.1 goals per game, the goals market also points upward. The away win and Over 2.5 combination has a historical case worth noting.

Trading Data

Cavalry FC goal-timing and half-time pattern breakdown (60 games, 30 at home): they score before half-time in 67% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 76% of the time; BTTS occurs in 63% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 57% of games (home games).

BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Cavalry FC 62% versus Atlético Ottawa 57%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Cavalry FC 53% | Atlético Ottawa 52%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Cavalry FC 1.77 xG and Atlético Ottawa 1.29 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: Cavalry FC attack 1.038 / defence 0.977 | Atlético Ottawa attack 1.038 / defence 0.945. League average goals — home 1.809 / away 1.268. Data: 28 Cavalry FC games / 28 Atlético Ottawa 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: Cavalry FC 47% | Draw 27% | Atlético Ottawa 26%. Fair-value odds: Cavalry FC 2.13 | Draw 3.70 | Atlético Ottawa 3.85. Cavalry FC hold a narrow Poisson edge at 47% — the draw (27%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 59% | BTTS probability 62% | Total xG 3.06. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 59% — the 3.06 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 62% reflects that both xG figures (1.77 / 1.29) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.

Final Verdict

Poisson rates Cavalry FC as the most likely outcome at 47% — moderate model lean. Note a divergence: in-form Atlético Ottawa (2.20 PPG) cuts against the Poisson lean — consider the strength-adjusted model over surface-level form results. Draw probability of 27% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Cavalry FC if the outright odds are short.

On the goals line, Poisson's 3.06 combined xG gives a 59% probability to Over 2.5 — strong, supported by form averaging 2.8 goals per game and H2H averaging 3.1 goals per meeting.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 62%. Form rates are neutral: Cavalry FC 50% | Atlético Ottawa 40%.

The Poisson model is drawing on PrevSeason data (28 games minimum) — early-season projections carry additional uncertainty. Weight the live form and odds signals accordingly.
