Trading

Beijing Guoan half-time and goal-timing data (17 games, 8 at home): they score before half-time in 50% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 88% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 62% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 62% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 75% of games (home games).

Shenyang Urban half-time and goal-timing data (17 games, 8 at away): they score before half-time in 88% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 100% of the time; BTTS occurs in 38% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 62% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 41%; they fail to score in 35% of games.

BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Beijing Guoan 65% versus Shenyang Urban 53%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Beijing Guoan 59% | Shenyang Urban 71%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Beijing Guoan 2.07 xG and Shenyang Urban 1.21 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: Beijing Guoan attack 1.073 / defence 0.956 | Shenyang Urban attack 0.930 / defence 1.121. League average goals — home 1.721 / away 1.361. Data: 47 Beijing Guoan games / 17 Shenyang Urban games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Beijing Guoan 57% | Draw 21% | Shenyang Urban 22%. Fair-value odds: Beijing Guoan 1.75 | Draw 4.76 | Shenyang Urban 4.55. The model has a clear lean to Beijing Guoan (57%) — a 35pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 64% | BTTS probability 61% | Total xG 3.28. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 64% — the 3.28 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 61% reflects that both xG figures (2.07 / 1.21) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.

Verdict

The Poisson model's primary lean is Beijing Guoan at 57% — clear model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. The model sees Beijing Guoan as less likely than the market's pricing reflects — Poisson 57% versus the market's fair-implied 68% (priced at 1.38). Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 21% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.

Poisson projects 3.28 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 64% probability — reasonable conviction, supported by form averaging 3.3 goals per game. The market (1.40, fair-implied 67%) is broadly in line with the Poisson probability.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 61% on Yes. Form rates are neutral: Beijing Guoan 70% | Shenyang Urban 38%. Market pricing (1.59, fair-implied 58%) is broadly in line with the Poisson read on BTTS.
