They are averaging 1.00 goals per game and conceding 1.60 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation.

They are scoring at 1.50 per game and conceding 1.70. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Both teams have scored in 80% of their matches this season — one of the stronger BTTS rates in the division, making Yes a well-evidenced play. This season is still relatively young for Fortuna Düsseldorf, so this record blends games from this season and last.
Fortuna Düsseldorf's away record: 3W 1D 2L from 6 road trips in 2. Bundesliga this season (1.67 PPG). Away from home they average 1.17 goals scored and 1.17 conceded per game.

Fortuna Düsseldorf trading profile (11 games, 5 at away): they score before half-time in 60% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 100% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 100% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 60% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 40% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 46%.

Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Hansa Rostock 1.07 xG and Fortuna Düsseldorf 1.41 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: Hansa Rostock attack 0.821 / defence 1.344 | Fortuna Düsseldorf attack 0.803 / defence 1.141. League average goals — home 1.148 / away 1.304. Data: 11 Hansa Rostock games / 11 Fortuna Düsseldorf games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Hansa Rostock 25% | Draw 34% | Fortuna Düsseldorf 41%. Fair-value odds: Hansa Rostock 4.00 | Draw 2.94 | Fortuna Düsseldorf 2.44. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome exceeds 45%. The draw at 34% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 45% | BTTS probability 54% | Total xG 2.48. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 55% — total xG of 2.48 is below the line but not decisively so. 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 Fortuna Düsseldorf at 41% — marginal model lean. With a 34% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Fortuna Düsseldorf offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.
The Poisson model projects 2.48 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 45% — Poisson-only — limited corroboration confidence.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 54% on Yes. Form rates corroborate: Hansa Rostock 80% | Fortuna Düsseldorf 50% BTTS from recent games.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Hansa Rostock beat Fortuna Düsseldorf 2-1 at Ostseestadion, Regular Season - 12, in the 2. Bundesliga. The remainder of the report sets that outcome against the pre-match model, the markets and the teams' data profiles.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Hansa Rostock 1.07 xG and Fortuna Düsseldorf 1.41 xG, a combined 2.48. The scoreboard read 2-1 for 3 actual goals. Hansa Rostock beat their projection by 0.9 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Hansa Rostock attack 0.82 / defence 1.34 against Fortuna Düsseldorf attack 0.80 / defence 1.14, drawn from 11/11 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Hansa Rostock 25% | Draw 34% | Fortuna Düsseldorf 41%, with Fortuna Düsseldorf to win its most likely call at 41%. Instead the game produced a Hansa Rostock win, an outcome the model had rated at just 25% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 45%. The game delivered 3, so it went over — against the model's lean. Over 1.5 had been 75% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 54% and the match saw both sides score — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 54% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Hansa Rostock 54%, Fortuna Düsseldorf 54%), a base rate that agreed with today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 59%, which matched the both-scored outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Hansa Rostock's trading profile (11 games, 5 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 46% of their matches — today it did.
Fortuna Düsseldorf's trading profile (11 games, 5 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 73% of their matches — today it did.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — Hansa Rostock 1.00 PPG, Fortuna Düsseldorf 1.36 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Hansa Rostock win broke the near-deadlock. Hansa Rostock (home/away splits) scored 2 against a 1.00 average — above their attacking norm and conceded 1 against a 2.00 average — tighter than their form line.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 1 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (hit). This one broke away from the data — most of the pre-match signals were overturned by how the ninety minutes actually played out.
