Head to Head

With the win record balanced, the strongest H2H-derived signal is in the goals market. At 3.6 goals per game historically, Over 2.5 is the cleaner angle to extract from the head-to-head data.

Trading Patterns

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Baník Ostrava 1.85 xG and Bohemians 1905 1.01 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: Baník Ostrava attack 1.346 / defence 0.901 | Bohemians 1905 attack 0.927 / defence 1.022. League average goals — home 1.346 / away 1.207. Baník Ostrava carry an above-average attack strength of 1.346 — their λ of 1.85 reflects genuine attacking quality above the league norm. Data: 59 Baník Ostrava games / 59 Bohemians 1905 games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Baník Ostrava 56% | Draw 24% | Bohemians 1905 19%. Fair-value odds: Baník Ostrava 1.79 | Draw 4.17 | Bohemians 1905 5.26. The model has a clear lean to Baník Ostrava (56%) — a 37pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 54% | BTTS probability 54% | Total xG 2.86. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 54%/46% — the total xG of 2.86 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.

Summary & Verdict

The Poisson model's primary lean is Baník Ostrava at 56% — clear model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 24% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.

On the goals line, Poisson's 2.86 combined xG gives a 54% probability to Over 2.5 — strong, supported by form averaging 3.0 goals per game and H2H averaging 3.6 goals per meeting.

Poisson assigns a 54% probability to BTTS Yes based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate: Baník Ostrava 60% | Bohemians 1905 50% BTTS from recent games.
