Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Kristiansund BK 1.04 xG and Sarpsborg 08 FF 1.44 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: Kristiansund BK attack 0.934 / defence 0.949 | Sarpsborg 08 FF attack 1.166 / defence 0.741. League average goals — home 1.504 / away 1.301. Sarpsborg 08 FF's defence strength of 0.741 is below average — they are conceding at a rate that inflates the home xG figure. Data: 44 Kristiansund BK games / 42 Sarpsborg 08 FF games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Kristiansund BK 27% | Draw 27% | Sarpsborg 08 FF 46%. Fair-value odds: Kristiansund BK 3.70 | Draw 3.70 | Sarpsborg 08 FF 2.17. Sarpsborg 08 FF hold a narrow Poisson edge at 46% — the draw (27%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 45% | BTTS probability 50% | Total xG 2.48. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 55% — total xG of 2.48 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 50% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Summary & Verdict

The Poisson model's primary lean is Sarpsborg 08 FF at 46% — moderate model lean. With a 27% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Sarpsborg 08 FF offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.

On the goals line, Poisson's 2.48 combined xG gives a 45% probability to Under 2.5 — Poisson-only — limited corroboration — though H2H averaging only 3.1 goals per meeting points in the other direction.

Poisson assigns a 50% probability to BTTS No based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates are neutral: Kristiansund BK 40% | Sarpsborg 08 FF 70%.
