Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Bodo/Glimt 2.39 xG and Brann 1.53 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: Bodo/Glimt attack 1.548 / defence 0.930 | Brann attack 1.116 / defence 1.039. League average goals — home 1.483 / away 1.478. Bodo/Glimt carry an above-average attack strength of 1.548 — their λ of 2.39 reflects genuine attacking quality above the league norm. Data: 38 Bodo/Glimt games / 41 Brann games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Bodo/Glimt 57% | Draw 19% | Brann 24%. Fair-value odds: Bodo/Glimt 1.75 | Draw 5.26 | Brann 4.17. The model has a clear lean to Bodo/Glimt (57%) — a 33pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 75% | BTTS probability 71% | Total xG 3.92. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 75% — a total xG of 3.92 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 71% reflects that both xG figures (2.39 / 1.53) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.

Picks & Verdict

On the Poisson output, Bodo/Glimt are the pick at 57% — clear model lean. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 19% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.

On the goals line, Poisson's 3.92 combined xG gives a 75% probability to Over 2.5 — strong, supported by form averaging 4.0 goals per game and H2H averaging 4.6 goals per meeting.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 71%. Form rates corroborate: Bodo/Glimt 70% | Brann 70% BTTS from recent games.
