Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Qingdao Youth Island 2.10 xG and Dalian Zhixing 1.37 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: Qingdao Youth Island attack 1.028 / defence 1.296 | Dalian Zhixing attack 0.703 / defence 1.183. League average goals — home 1.725 / away 1.500. Data: 36 Qingdao Youth Island games / 7 Dalian Zhixing games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Qingdao Youth Island 53% | Draw 24% | Dalian Zhixing 23%. Fair-value odds: Qingdao Youth Island 1.89 | Draw 4.17 | Dalian Zhixing 4.35. Qingdao Youth Island hold a narrow Poisson edge at 53% — the draw (24%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 67% | BTTS probability 67% | Total xG 3.46. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 67% — a total xG of 3.46 means the expected score alone exceeds the 2.5 threshold, making the Over not just likely but structurally supported by both sides' attack/defence profiles. BTTS Yes at 67% reflects that both xG figures (2.10 / 1.37) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.

Final Verdict

Poisson rates Qingdao Youth Island as the most likely outcome at 53% — moderate model lean. Draw probability of 24% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Qingdao Youth Island if the outright odds are short.

Poisson projects 3.46 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 67% probability — Poisson-only — limited corroboration conviction.
