Fixture Analysis

It is a Serie B clash, Regular Season - 14 as Palermo welcome Carrarese to Stadio Renzo Barbera. Kick-off is set for Saturday 29 November 2025 at 18:30 UTC.

Recent Form

Across all Serie B games this season, Palermo have gone 3W 4D 3L from 10 outings — a 1.30 PPG return. Last five: L L W L D. They are averaging 1.20 goals per game and conceding 0.90 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. This season is still relatively young for Palermo, so this record blends games from this season and last.

Palermo at Stadio Renzo Barbera this season: 4W 4D 2L from 10 home games — 1.60 PPG on home soil. At home they are averaging 1.40 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 Stadio Renzo Barbera.

Carrarese — All Games: 2W 5D 3L from 10 Serie B fixtures this season — 1.10 PPG. Last five: W L L D D. They are scoring at 1.50 per game and conceding 1.50. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market. This season is still relatively young for Carrarese, so this record blends games from this season and last.

Carrarese away from home this season: 1W 6D 3L from 10 away games — 0.90 PPG on the road. Away from home they average 1.10 goals scored and 1.30 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 70% of their away matches — a high BTTS rate on the road that directly informs this fixture.

The form comparison is too close to call — 1.30 PPG (Palermo) versus 1.10 (Carrarese). When the figures are this level, no pick can be reliably derived from recent results alone.

H2H Record

The H2H landscape is flat: 2 previous encounters have yielded 0 wins for Palermo, 1 for Carrarese and 1 draws. A neutral reading in isolation.

These sides have historically produced few goals — 1.5 per contest from 2 previous meetings. The Under 2.5 market has a well-supported historical case here. The most recent clash, on 13 May 2025, ended 1–1 with a draw.

With a balanced win record and just 1.5 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.

In-Play Data

Palermo trading profile (51 games, 25 at home): they score before half-time in 68% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 67% of the time; BTTS occurs in 40% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 36% of games (home games).

Carrarese trading profile (51 games, 25 at away): they score before half-time in 68% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 60% of the time; BTTS occurs in 64% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 48% of games (away games); they fail to score in 31% of games.

BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Palermo 53% versus Carrarese 49%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Palermo 43% | Carrarese 45%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Palermo 1.47 xG and Carrarese 1.03 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: Palermo attack 1.039 / defence 0.899 | Carrarese attack 1.082 / defence 1.054. League average goals — home 1.346 / away 1.063. Data: 51 Palermo games / 51 Carrarese games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Palermo 46% | Draw 29% | Carrarese 25%. Fair-value odds: Palermo 2.17 | Draw 3.45 | Carrarese 4.00. Palermo hold a narrow Poisson edge at 46% — the draw (29%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 46% | BTTS probability 51% | Total xG 2.51. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 46%/54% — the total xG of 2.51 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 51% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Analysis Verdict

On the Poisson output, Palermo are the pick at 46% — moderate model lean. With a 29% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Palermo offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.

Poisson projects 2.51 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 46% probability — Poisson-only — limited corroboration conviction.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 51%. Form rates corroborate: Palermo 40% | Carrarese 70% BTTS from recent games.

📈 Form Insight

Form at a Glance

Across their last 51 outings, Palermo have picked up 1.41 PPG on a 19W 15D 17L record — L-L-W-L-D across the most recent five. The sample for Palermo is still a mix of this season and last, given how young the current campaign is.

Carrarese's form line: 14W 19D 18L from 51 games, 1.20 PPG, last five W-L-L-D-D. The sample for Carrarese is still a mix of this season and last, given how young the current campaign is.

Form-wise this is close to level: Palermo on 1.41 PPG, Carrarese on 1.20. Other factors will likely decide this one more than recent results.

Venue Form

On home soil, Palermo have posted 1.60 PPG from 25 outings (11W 7D 7L).

On the road, Carrarese have gone 2W 11D 12L from 25 away games — 0.68 PPG when travelling. That's a step down from their 1.20 PPG overall record — away form has been the weaker part of Carrarese's season.

Comparing the two in their relevant venue splits, Palermo come out ahead — a more targeted read than the overall PPG figures above, since it strips out games played in the opposite context.

Goals in Recent Form

📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Palermo beat Carrarese 5-0 at Stadio Renzo Barbera, Regular Season - 14, in the Serie B. That is the final score; the rest of this report grades it against what the data forecast beforehand.

The Model vs The Result

The Poisson model went into this projecting Palermo 1.47 xG and Carrarese 1.03 xG, a combined 2.51. The scoreboard read 5-0 for 5 actual goals. Palermo beat their projection by 3.5 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in. Carrarese landed 1.0 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Palermo attack 1.04 / defence 0.90 against Carrarese attack 1.08 / defence 1.05, drawn from 51/51 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Palermo 46% | Draw 29% | Carrarese 25%, with Palermo to win its most likely call at 46%. The scoreboard confirmed the model's leading pick.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 46%. The game delivered 5, so it went over — a miss for the goals model. Over 1.5 had been 73% and landed. Over 3.5 was 24% and came in. On both teams to score, the model sat at 51% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 44% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Palermo 43%, Carrarese 45%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 51%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Palermo's trading profile (51 games, 25 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 53% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 31% of the time, and duly kept one.

Carrarese's trading profile (51 games, 25 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 49% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 35% of the time, and conceded here; they fail to score in 31% of games, a blank that repeated today.

Form vs Result

The form lines were close — Palermo 1.41 PPG, Carrarese 1.20 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Palermo win broke the near-deadlock. Palermo (home/away splits) scored 5 against a 1.40 average — above their attacking norm and conceded 0 against a 0.92 average — tighter than their form line. Carrarese (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 0.96 scoring average — below par going forward and shipped 5 against a 1.56 concession average — a leakier day than usual.

Verdict

Grading the result against the stored data, 1 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (hit), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss). A poor return for the projections: the match defied the majority of what the numbers expected.
