✍️ Match Preview

Fixture Analysis

It is a Serie B clash, Regular Season - 11 as Pisa welcome Sudtirol to Arena Garibaldi - Stadio Romeo Anconetani. Kick-off is set for Saturday 7 November 2026 at 14:00 UTC.

Form Guide

Pisa — All Games: 4W 1D 5L from 10 Serie B outings this season, averaging 1.30 points per game. Last five: W L D W W. Offensively they are averaging 1.50 goals per game, with 1.70 conceded. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. Pisa have played only a handful of Serie B games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.

Pisa's home record at Arena Garibaldi - Stadio Romeo Anconetani: 3W 0D 7L from 10 Serie B appearances (0.90 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.10 goals scored and 1.70 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their home matches — a rate that supports the Yes angle in this fixture.

Across all Serie B games this season, Sudtirol have recorded 3W 6D 1L from 10 outings — 1.50 PPG. Last five: D W D W D. Their scoring rate of 1.00 per game is modest, conceding 0.50 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. Defensively, 0.50 goals conceded per game is elite-level — a side this difficult to score against is a real threat to Over 2.5 and BTTS Yes. 5 clean sheets from 10 games (50%) is an exceptional defensive record — they are keeping clean sheets more often than not. Sudtirol have played only a handful of Serie B games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.

Sudtirol's away record: 3W 3D 4L from 10 road trips in Serie B this season (1.20 PPG). Away from home they average 1.50 goals scored and 1.70 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context.

There is minimal separation in the form figures — Pisa at 1.30 PPG versus Sudtirol's 1.50. The form guide is not providing a strong directional steer; the model and market data will carry more weight in the final assessment.

The BTTS market is worth targeting here. Pisa register both teams scoring in 60% of relevant matches, Sudtirol in 60% (using home/away splits) — both sides above the 60% threshold gives BTTS Yes firm statistical grounding.

H2H Record

There is little to separate the sides historically. From 6 previous meetings, Pisa have won 2, Sudtirol 2, with 2 draws — a balanced ledger that offers no obvious directional steer on its own.

Goals have been a feature of this fixture. The last 6 meetings have averaged 3.3 per game — a rate that gives the Over 2.5 market a solid historical foundation. The most recent clash, on 9 May 2025, ended 3–3 with a draw.

With the win record balanced, the strongest H2H-derived signal is in the goals market. At 3.3 goals per game historically, Over 2.5 is the cleaner angle to extract from the head-to-head data.

In-Play Profile

Pisa in-play tendencies (45 games, 21 at home): they score before half-time in 43% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 76% of the time; BTTS occurs in 43% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 48% of games (home games); they fail to score in 49% of games.

Sudtirol in-play tendencies (45 games, 21 at away): they score before half-time in 71% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 50% of the time; BTTS occurs in 57% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 38% of games (away games); they fail to score in 38% of games.

BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Pisa 44% versus Sudtirol 51%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Pisa 58% | Sudtirol 36%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Pisa 1.33 xG and Sudtirol 1.95 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: Pisa attack 0.989 / defence 1.314 | Sudtirol attack 1.167 / defence 1.001. League average goals — home 1.343 / away 1.271. Data: 7 Pisa games / 44 Sudtirol games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Pisa 25% | Draw 24% | Sudtirol 51%. Fair-value odds: Pisa 4.00 | Draw 4.17 | Sudtirol 1.96. Sudtirol hold a narrow Poisson edge at 51% — the draw (24%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 64% | BTTS probability 64% | Total xG 3.28. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 64% — the 3.28 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 64% reflects that both xG figures (1.33 / 1.95) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.

Analysis Verdict

On the Poisson output, Sudtirol are the pick at 51% — moderate model lean. With a 24% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Sudtirol offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.

Poisson projects 3.28 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 64% probability — strong conviction, supported by form averaging 3.0 goals per game and H2H averaging 3.3 goals per meeting.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 64%. Form rates corroborate: Pisa 60% | Sudtirol 60% BTTS from recent games.
