Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Werder Bremen 1.16 xG and 1899 Hoffenheim 1.90 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: Werder Bremen attack 0.859 / defence 1.164 | 1899 Hoffenheim attack 1.104 / defence 0.810. League average goals — home 1.663 / away 1.480. Data: 52 Werder Bremen games / 52 1899 Hoffenheim games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Werder Bremen 21% | Draw 26% | 1899 Hoffenheim 53%. Fair-value odds: Werder Bremen 4.76 | Draw 3.85 | 1899 Hoffenheim 1.89. 1899 Hoffenheim hold a narrow Poisson edge at 53% — the draw (26%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 59% | BTTS probability 60% | Total xG 3.06. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 59% — the 3.06 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 60% reflects that both xG figures (1.16 / 1.90) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.
