Poisson model rates Everton at 36% — neither recent form nor the head-to-head data gives a clear steer either way as Crystal Palace face Everton.

✍️ Match Preview

Match Analysis

Crystal Palace host Everton at Selhurst Park in Premier League (matchday 12). Kick-off is Saturday 11 November 2023 at 15:00 UK time.

Recent Form

Across their last 10 games, Crystal Palace have gone 3W 3D 4L — a 1.20 PPG return. Last five: W D L L W. They are averaging 0.90 goals per game and conceding 1.30 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 4 clean sheets in 10 games (40%) reflects a solid defensive base.

Crystal Palace at home: 4W 4D 2L from their last 10 home games — 1.60 PPG on home soil. At home they are averaging 1.30 goals scored and 1.00 conceded per game. 4 home clean sheets from their last 10 home games (40%) — a solid defensive base on their own ground.

Looking at their last 10 matches, Everton stand at 3W 2D 5L — 1.10 PPG. Last five: L W L W D. Their scoring rate of 1.10 per game is modest, conceding 1.40 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings (20%).

Everton's away record over their last 10 away games: 3W 4D 3L (1.30 PPG). Away from home they average 1.40 goals scored and 1.50 conceded per game.

There is minimal separation in the form figures — Crystal Palace at 1.20 PPG versus Everton's 1.10. The form guide is not providing a strong directional steer; the model and market data will carry more weight in the final assessment.

H2H Record

The H2H picture is flat: the 3 H2H matches we hold have produced 0 wins for Crystal Palace, 2 for Everton and 1 draw. Form and model data should carry more weight here. With only 3 H2H matches to go on, treat this as a light input.

The 3 H2H matches in our data averaged 2.7 goals per game — a neutral rate that gives no strong lean on the goals market from the H2H alone. The most recent of those, on 22 Apr 2023, ended Crystal Palace 0–0 Everton — a draw.

The head-to-head data offers no strong steer in either the result or goals markets. Form, the model and current market pricing should carry more weight for this fixture.

Trading Patterns

Crystal Palace in-play and half-time data (last 49 games, 24 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 46% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 67% of the time; of the 8 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 25%; of the 14 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 29%; BTTS occurs in 50% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 42% of games (home games); they fail to score in 41% of games.

Everton in-play and half-time data (last 49 games, 24 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 71% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 83% of the time; of the 9 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 56%; BTTS occurs in 50% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 46% of games (away games); they fail to score in 39% of games.

BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Crystal Palace 45% versus Everton 45%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Crystal Palace 39% | Everton 43%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Crystal Palace 1.10 xG and Everton 1.13 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: Crystal Palace attack 0.751 / defence 0.890 | Everton attack 0.940 / defence 0.919. League average goals — home 1.593 / away 1.352. Crystal Palace's attack rating of 0.751 is below the league average, which holds their xG down at 1.10. Data: built from Crystal Palace's last 49 games and Everton's last 49.

Result probabilities: Crystal Palace 35% | Draw 29% | Everton 36%. Fair-value odds: Crystal Palace 2.88 | Draw 3.46 | Everton 2.75. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome reaches 45%. The draw at 29% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 39% | BTTS Yes probability 45% | Total xG 2.23. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 61% — total xG of 2.23 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS No at 55% is only a slight lean — the model gives both sides a fair chance of scoring, so No isn't a clear standalone call.

Analysis Verdict

On the Poisson output, Everton are the pick at 36% — marginal model lean. With a 29% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Everton offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win. The opposing side holds a 35% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

On the goals line, Poisson's 2.23 combined xG gives a 61% probability to Under 2.5 — a Poisson-only call with no corroboration from form or H2H.

Poisson assigns a 55% probability to BTTS No based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates are neutral — both teams scored in: Crystal Palace 50% (last 10 home games) | Everton 50% (last 10 away games).

📈 Form Insight

Where Both Sides Stand

Across their last 49 outings, Crystal Palace have picked up 1.22 PPG on a 15W 15D 19L record — W-D-L-L-W across the most recent five.

Everton's form line: 11W 14D 24L from 49 games, 0.96 PPG, last five L-W-L-W-D.

Form-wise this is close to level: Crystal Palace on 1.22 PPG, Everton on 0.96. Other factors will likely decide this one more than recent results.

Home Ground vs the Road

The Model vs The Result
