Trading & In-Play

SC Freiburg — key trading statistics (last 43 games, 21 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 76% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 85% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 62% of those occasions; of the 11 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 54%; BTTS occurs in 76% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 71% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 40%.

FC Augsburg — key trading statistics (last 43 games, 21 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 86% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 89% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 56% of those occasions; of the 13 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 54%; of the 16 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 25%; BTTS occurs in 71% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 76% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 46%.

From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — SC Freiburg 63% and FC Augsburg 67% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. Over 2.5 goals is well-supported by both sides' in-play profiles (SC Freiburg 67% | FC Augsburg 67%). Note also that FC Augsburg surrender HT leads in 54% of cases while SC Freiburg recover from half-time deficits to draw or win 54% of the time — a dynamic that could influence in-play positioning.

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects SC Freiburg 2.76 xG and FC Augsburg 1.76 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: SC Freiburg attack 1.160 / defence 0.933 | FC Augsburg attack 1.388 / defence 1.253. League average goals — home 1.898 / away 1.358. FC Augsburg's defence rating of 1.253 (above 1 = concedes more than average) is pushing SC Freiburg's projected output up. FC Augsburg have an above-average attack rating of 1.388, which lifts their away xG to 1.76. Data: built from SC Freiburg's last 43 games and FC Augsburg's last 43.

Result probabilities: SC Freiburg 59% | Draw 18% | FC Augsburg 24%. Fair-value odds: SC Freiburg 1.70 | Draw 5.69 | FC Augsburg 4.25. The model has a clear lean to SC Freiburg (59%) — a 35pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 83% | BTTS Yes probability 78% | Total xG 4.52. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 83% — a total xG of 4.52 means the expected score alone exceeds the 2.5 threshold, making the Over not just likely but structurally supported by both sides' attack/defence profiles. BTTS Yes at 78% — both xG figures (2.76 / 1.76) are high enough that each side is projected to find the net.

Verdict

The Poisson model's primary lean is SC Freiburg at 59% — clear model lean. Recent form and the head-to-head data both align with the Poisson read — multi-source corroboration increases confidence in this selection. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 18% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.

Poisson projects 4.52 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 83% probability — strong conviction, supported by recent form (SC Freiburg's last 10 home games and FC Augsburg's last 10 away games) averaging 3.9 goals per game and the H2H data averaging 3.1 goals per game across 10 H2H matches.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 78% on Yes. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: SC Freiburg 70% (last 10 home games) | FC Augsburg 80% (last 10 away games).
