Form

Offensively they are averaging 1.50 goals per game, with 1.60 conceded. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets.

At home they are averaging 1.70 goals scored and 0.80 conceded per game. 5 clean sheets from 10 home games (50%) — they are an exceptionally hard side to score against at Stade du Roudourou. At home, both teams have scored in only 30% of games — reinforcing BTTS No as the home-venue-backed angle. Their home PPG of 1.90 is noticeably stronger than their overall 1.30 — Guingamp are significantly better at Stade du Roudourou than their overall form suggests.

Martigues have collected 1.30 PPG across 10 Ligue 2 outings this season: 4W 1D 5L. Last five: D W L L W. Their scoring rate of 1.20 per game is modest, conceding 1.10 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 4 clean sheets in 10 outings (40%) underlines their defensive solidity. Both teams have scored in just 30% of their games, reflecting a regular tendency to keep or record clean sheets.

Martigues's away record: 4W 1D 5L from 10 road trips in Ligue 2 this season (1.30 PPG). Away from home they average 0.80 goals scored and 1.00 conceded per game. Away from home, both teams have scored in only 20% of games — a low rate that backs BTTS No when they travel.

Both sides are running at similar form levels — 1.30 PPG for Guingamp against 1.30 for Martigues. There is no clear form edge to exploit here; other signals need to take the lead.

Both sides have a clean-sheet tendency (using home/away splits) — Guingamp have seen both teams score in just 30% of their matches, Martigues in only 20%. BTTS No has clear statistical support from the form record of both squads.

H2H History

The head-to-head record is closely matched — Guingamp lead 1W to 0W over the last 1 encounters, with 0 draws, though neither side has established a commanding advantage.

Scoring has been limited when these teams have met. The 1 previous contests averaged 1.0 goals, making the Under 2.5 the historically backed angle in the goals market. The most recent clash, on 6 Dec 2024, ended 1–0 with Guingamp winning.

With a balanced win record and just 1.0 goals per game historically, the H2H points toward a tight, low-scoring contest. Under 2.5 goals has the strongest statistical grounding from the fixture history regardless of which side wins.

Trading Data

Guingamp goal-timing and half-time pattern breakdown (31 games, 15 at home): they score before half-time in 73% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 100% of the time; BTTS occurs in 40% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 67% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 39%.

Martigues goal-timing and half-time pattern breakdown (31 games, 15 at away): they score before half-time in 67% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 100% of the time; BTTS occurs in 27% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 40% of games (away games); they fail to score in 52% of games.

BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Guingamp 48% versus Martigues 26%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Guingamp 61% | Martigues 42%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Guingamp 1.28 xG and Martigues 0.91 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: Guingamp attack 1.067 / defence 1.003 | Martigues attack 0.826 / defence 0.865. League average goals — home 1.389 / away 1.100. Data: 69 Guingamp games / 31 Martigues games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Guingamp 45% | Draw 29% | Martigues 26%. Fair-value odds: Guingamp 2.22 | Draw 3.45 | Martigues 3.85. Guingamp hold a narrow Poisson edge at 45% — the draw (29%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 38% | BTTS probability 43% | Total xG 2.19. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 62% — total xG of 2.19 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 43% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Final Verdict

Poisson rates Guingamp as the most likely outcome at 45% — moderate model lean. Draw probability of 29% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Guingamp if the outright odds are short.

The Poisson model projects 2.19 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 38% — reasonable confidence, supported by form averaging 2.1 goals per game.

Poisson assigns a 43% probability to BTTS No based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate: Guingamp 30% | Martigues 20% BTTS from recent games.
