Analysis
AEK Athens FC make the trip to AEL FC Arena to face Larisa in Super League 1, Regular Season - 4. The match kicks off on Sunday 21 September 2025 at 15:30 UTC.
Form
Larisa (all games): 0W 2D 1L across 3 Super League 1 fixtures this term — 0.67 PPG. Last five: L D D. They are averaging 1.00 goals per game and conceding 1.33 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. Both teams have scored in 67% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets. Larisa have played only a handful of Super League 1 games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.
AEK Athens FC's overall Super League 1 record this term: 3W 1D 6L from 10 games (1.00 PPG). Last five: L L W W W. Their scoring rate of 0.80 per game is modest, conceding 1.20 — 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. AEK Athens FC have played only a handful of Super League 1 games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.
AEK Athens FC's away record: 5W 1D 4L from 10 road trips in Super League 1 this season (1.60 PPG). Away from home they average 1.20 goals scored and 0.90 conceded per game. 4 clean sheets from 10 away games (40%) shows they are capable of shutting up shop on the road. Away from home, both teams have scored in only 30% of games — a low rate that backs BTTS No when they travel. Their away PPG of 1.60 exceeds their overall 1.00 — they actually perform better on the road than their aggregate form implies.
Both sides are running at similar form levels — 0.67 PPG for Larisa against 1.00 for AEK Athens FC. There is no clear form edge to exploit here; other signals need to take the lead.
Trading Data
Larisa goal-timing and half-time pattern breakdown (3 games): they score before half-time in 33% of fixtures; BTTS occurs in 67% of their matches; Over 2.5 goals lands in 33% of games; they fail to score in 33% of games.
AEK Athens FC goal-timing and half-time pattern breakdown (3 games): they score before half-time in 67% of fixtures; they lead at the break 67% of the time; BTTS occurs in 0% of their matches; Over 2.5 goals lands in 0% of games; they keep a clean sheet 100% of the time.
The in-play data supports BTTS No — both teams show low combined scoring rates (Larisa 67% | AEK Athens FC 0%). Under 2.5 goals has backing from the in-play data — both teams register low Over 2.5 rates (Larisa 33% | AEK Athens FC 0%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Larisa 0.78 xG and AEK Athens FC 1.23 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: Larisa attack 0.814 / defence 1.122 | AEK Athens FC attack 0.993 / defence 0.795. League average goals — home 1.206 / away 1.100. AEK Athens FC's defence strength of 0.795 is below average — they are conceding at a rate that inflates the home xG figure. Data: 3 Larisa games / 29 AEK Athens FC games used (Blended). A blend of current and prior-season data is applied to stabilise estimates early in the campaign.
Result probabilities: Larisa 24% | Draw 30% | AEK Athens FC 47%. Fair-value odds: Larisa 4.17 | Draw 3.33 | AEK Athens FC 2.13. AEK Athens FC hold a narrow Poisson edge at 47% — the draw (30%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 32% | BTTS probability 38% | Total xG 2.01. Under 2.5 is the strongly backed market at 68% probability — total xG of 2.01 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 38% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Final Verdict
Poisson rates AEK Athens FC as the most likely outcome at 47% — moderate model lean. Draw probability of 30% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on AEK Athens FC if the outright odds are short.
The Poisson model projects 2.01 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 32% — Poisson-only — limited corroboration confidence.
Poisson assigns a 38% probability to BTTS No based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates are neutral: Larisa 67% | AEK Athens FC 30%.
The Poisson model is drawing on Blended data (3 games minimum) — early-season projections carry additional uncertainty. Weight the live form and odds signals accordingly.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Larisa and AEK Athens FC finished level at 1-1 at AEL FC Arena, Regular Season - 4, in the Super League 1. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Larisa 0.78 xG and AEK Athens FC 1.23 xG, a combined 2.01. The scoreboard read 1-1 for 2 actual goals. Both sides finished within a goal of their individual projections, so the scoreline sat close to the model's expected shape. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Larisa attack 0.81 / defence 1.12 against AEK Athens FC attack 0.99 / defence 0.80, drawn from 3/29 games (Blended).
On the result, the model split it Larisa 24% | Draw 30% | AEK Athens FC 47%, with AEK Athens FC to win its most likely call at 47%. The actual draw had been the model's second-ranked read at 30%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 32%. The game delivered 2, so it stayed under — a call the model got right. Over 1.5 had been 60% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 38% and the match saw both sides score — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 17% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Larisa 33%, AEK Athens FC 0%), a base rate that agreed with today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 33%, which did not match the both-scored outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Larisa's trading profile (3 games) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 67% of their matches — today it did.
AEK Athens FC's trading profile (3 games) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 0% of their matches — today it did; they keep a clean sheet 100% of the time, and conceded here.
Form vs Result
On form, AEK Athens FC arrived the stronger side — 3.00 PPG against 0.67. The form guide was only half-right: the stronger side did not lose, but could not convert the edge into a win. AEK Athens FC shipped 1 against a 0.00 concession average — a leakier day than usual.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 1 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (miss), form (miss). The data was on the wrong side of this result more often than not — a reminder that a single match sits well inside the model's variance.
