They are averaging 0.60 goals per game and conceding 1.70 — 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 Changchun Yatai, so this record blends games from this season and last.

Their scoring rate of 0.70 per game is modest, conceding 2.50 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. Conceding 2.50 per game is a high rate — their defensive vulnerabilities have been exposed regularly this season. This season is still relatively young for Meizhou Kejia, so this record blends games from this season and last.

Both teams have scored in 70% of their away matches — a high BTTS rate on the road that directly informs this fixture.

The form figures are too closely matched to derive a directional pick: Changchun Yatai 0.40 PPG, Meizhou Kejia 0.40 PPG. Look to other data sets to build the analysis.

The BTTS market is worth targeting here. Changchun Yatai register both teams scoring in 60% of relevant matches, Meizhou Kejia in 70% (using home/away splits) — both sides above the 60% threshold gives BTTS Yes firm statistical grounding.

H2H

Despite the anticipated home advantage, Meizhou Kejia have the better historical record — 5 wins from 7 previous contests against 2 for Changchun Yatai.

The H2H provides genuine backing for the away side. Meizhou Kejia have won 5 of 7 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.

In-Play Profile

Changchun Yatai in-play tendencies (50 games, 25 at home): they score before half-time in 72% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 62% of the time; BTTS occurs in 56% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 56% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 40%.

From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — Changchun Yatai 60% and Meizhou Kejia 60% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. Over 2.5 goals is well-supported by both sides' in-play profiles (Changchun Yatai 64% | Meizhou Kejia 66%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Changchun Yatai 1.11 xG and Meizhou Kejia 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: Changchun Yatai attack 0.635 / defence 1.086 | Meizhou Kejia attack 0.806 / defence 0.975. League average goals — home 1.802 / away 1.365. Changchun Yatai's attack strength of 0.635 is below the league average — the 1.11 xG projection reflects a team that scores at a discount to the division norm. Data: 50 Changchun Yatai games / 50 Meizhou Kejia games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Changchun Yatai 33% | Draw 31% | Meizhou Kejia 37%. Fair-value odds: Changchun Yatai 3.03 | Draw 3.23 | Meizhou Kejia 2.70. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome exceeds 45%. The draw at 31% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 41% | BTTS probability 48% | Total xG 2.31. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 59% — total xG of 2.31 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 48% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Our Verdict

Poisson rates Meizhou Kejia as the most likely outcome at 37% — marginal model lean. With a 31% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Meizhou Kejia offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win. The opposing side holds a 33% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

The Poisson model projects 2.31 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 41% — Poisson-only — limited corroboration confidence — though H2H averaging only 3.1 goals per meeting points in the other direction.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 48% on No. This conflicts with form data: Changchun Yatai 60% | Meizhou Kejia 70% from recent games — a notable divergence.

The outsider holds a 33% 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.
