Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Estac Troyes 1.20 xG and Nancy 0.89 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: Estac Troyes attack 0.987 / defence 0.811 | Nancy attack 1.001 / defence 0.930. League average goals — home 1.310 / away 1.098. Data: 38 Estac Troyes games / 4 Nancy games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Estac Troyes 43% | Draw 30% | Nancy 27%. Fair-value odds: Estac Troyes 2.33 | Draw 3.33 | Nancy 3.70. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome exceeds 45%. The draw at 30% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 35% | BTTS probability 41% | Total xG 2.09. Under 2.5 is the strongly backed market at 65% probability — total xG of 2.09 sits well below the 2.5 threshold. The model is projecting a tight, low-scoring match based on both sides' defensive quality. BTTS probability of 41% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Picks & Verdict

On the Poisson output, Estac Troyes are the pick at 43% — marginal model lean. Draw probability of 30% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Estac Troyes if the outright odds are short.

On the goals line, Poisson's 2.09 combined xG gives a 35% probability to Under 2.5 — reasonable, supported by form averaging 2.0 goals per game.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is No at 41%. Form rates corroborate: Estac Troyes 20% | Nancy 50% BTTS from recent games.
