Form

Dalian Aerbin (all games): 3W 0D 7L across 10 Super League fixtures this term — 0.90 PPG. Last five: L W L L L. They are averaging 0.90 goals per game and conceding 1.60 — 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 Dalian Aerbin, so this record blends games from this season and last.

Dalian Aerbin's form when playing at home: 2W 1D 7L across 10 games at Suzhou Olympic Sports Centre Stadium this term (0.70 PPG). At home they are averaging 0.70 goals scored and 1.70 conceded per game.

Qingdao Huanghai's overall Super League record this term: 1W 1D 8L from 10 games (0.40 PPG). Last five: W L L D L. Their scoring rate of 0.60 per game is modest, conceding 2.10 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. Conceding 2.10 per game is a high rate — their defensive vulnerabilities have been exposed regularly this season. This season is still relatively young for Qingdao Huanghai, so this record blends games from this season and last.

On the road, Qingdao Huanghai have gone 1W 2D 7L from 10 away fixtures this term (0.50 PPG). Away from home they average 0.50 goals scored and 2.10 conceded per game. Away from home, both teams have scored in only 30% of games — a low rate that backs BTTS No when they travel.

The points-per-game gap of 0.50 in Dalian Aerbin's favour (0.90 vs 0.40) is a statistically meaningful difference. The hosts are the form pick here, with draw protection the sensible hedge given the away side's competitiveness.

Head-to-Head

Neither side has dominated this fixture. The last 1 head-to-head meetings have produced 1 wins for Dalian Aerbin, 0 for Qingdao Huanghai and 0 draws — an even split that leaves the H2H largely neutral as a betting input.

These two sides have produced goals at a consistent rate historically, averaging 3.0 per game across 1 meetings. That scoring profile provides genuine support for the Over 2.5 angle. The most recent clash, on 21 Dec 2021, ended 2–1 with Dalian Aerbin 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 Data

Dalian Aerbin goal-timing and half-time pattern breakdown (21 games, 10 at home): they score before half-time in 50% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 100% of the time; BTTS occurs in 40% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 40% of games (home games); they fail to score in 43% of games.

Qingdao Huanghai goal-timing and half-time pattern breakdown (21 games, 10 at away): they score before half-time in 60% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 86% of the time; BTTS occurs in 30% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 40% of games (away games); they fail to score in 62% of games.

BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Dalian Aerbin 43% versus Qingdao Huanghai 33%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Dalian Aerbin 48% | Qingdao Huanghai 48%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Dalian Aerbin 1.36 xG and Qingdao Huanghai 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: Dalian Aerbin attack 0.852 / defence 1.362 | Qingdao Huanghai attack 0.684 / defence 1.378. League average goals — home 1.158 / away 1.286. Qingdao Huanghai bring a strong defensive rating of 1.378 — this is suppressing Dalian Aerbin's projected output below what their attack strength alone would suggest. Data: 14 Dalian Aerbin games / 14 Qingdao Huanghai games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Dalian Aerbin 38% | Draw 31% | Qingdao Huanghai 31%. Fair-value odds: Dalian Aerbin 2.63 | Draw 3.23 | Qingdao Huanghai 3.23. 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 47% | BTTS probability 54% | Total xG 2.56. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 47%/53% — the total xG of 2.56 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 Dalian Aerbin as the most likely outcome at 38% — marginal model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw probability of 31% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Dalian Aerbin 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 2.56 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 47% probability — Poisson-only — limited corroboration conviction.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 54% on Yes. This conflicts with form data: Dalian Aerbin 40% | Qingdao Huanghai 30% from recent games — a notable divergence.

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.
