The form ledger tips toward Slovan Liberec. A 0.70 PPG lead over Bohemians 1905 (1.70 vs 1.00) is a consistent enough margin to carry weight. If the win odds appear compressed, Draw No Bet offers draw insurance at a lower cost than a full switch to Double Chance.

H2H Analysis

Neither side has dominated the 1 H2H match in our data: 0 wins for Slovan Liberec, 1 for Bohemians 1905 and 0 draws — leaving the H2H largely neutral. With only 1 H2H match to go on, treat this as a light input.

Goals have been a feature of this fixture — the 1 H2H match in our data averaged 4.0 per game, which gives Over 2.5 a solid head-to-head foundation. The most recent of those, on 5 Mar 2023, ended Slovan Liberec 1–3 Bohemians 1905 — a Bohemians 1905 win.

With the win record balanced, the strongest H2H signal is in the goals market — at 4.0 goals per game, Over 2.5 is the cleaner angle from the head-to-head data.

Trading Data

Slovan Liberec goal-timing and half-time pattern breakdown (last 36 games, 18 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 83% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 71% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 57% of those occasions; they lead at the break 47% of the time; of the 17 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 35%; BTTS occurs in 67% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 61% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 39%.

From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — Slovan Liberec 64% and Bohemians 1905 58% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Slovan Liberec 67% | Bohemians 1905 56%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Slovan Liberec 1.78 xG and Bohemians 1905 1.30 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: Slovan Liberec attack 1.115 / defence 1.046 | Bohemians 1905 attack 1.041 / defence 0.911. League average goals — home 1.755 / away 1.195. Data: built from Slovan Liberec's last 32 games and Bohemians 1905's last 32. Some of those games are older results, so treat these probabilities as directional rather than precise.

Result probabilities: Slovan Liberec 48% | Draw 25% | Bohemians 1905 27%. Fair-value odds: Slovan Liberec 2.08 | Draw 4.04 | Bohemians 1905 3.67. Slovan Liberec hold a narrow Poisson edge at 48% — the draw (25%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 60% | BTTS Yes probability 61% | Total xG 3.08. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 60% — the 3.08 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 61% — both xG figures (1.78 / 1.30) are high enough that each side is projected to find the net.

Verdict

The Poisson model's primary lean is Slovan Liberec at 48% — moderate model lean. Recent form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw probability of 25% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Slovan Liberec if the outright odds are short.

On the goals line, Poisson's 3.08 combined xG gives a 60% probability to Over 2.5 — reasonable conviction, supported by recent form (Slovan Liberec's last 10 home games and Bohemians 1905's last 10 away games) averaging 3.5 goals per game.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 61%. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Slovan Liberec 80% (last 10 home games) | Bohemians 1905 50% (last 10 away games).

The Poisson model's sample (Slovan Liberec 32 games, Bohemians 1905 32) includes some older results, so its projections carry extra uncertainty — weight recent form and the odds accordingly.
