Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects GKS Katowice 1.01 xG and Piast Gliwice 1.12 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: GKS Katowice attack 0.853 / defence 0.952 | Piast Gliwice attack 1.064 / defence 0.833. League average goals — home 1.428 / away 1.106. Data: 20 GKS Katowice games / 54 Piast Gliwice games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: GKS Katowice 32% | Draw 30% | Piast Gliwice 38%. Fair-value odds: GKS Katowice 3.12 | Draw 3.33 | Piast Gliwice 2.63. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome exceeds 45%. The draw at 30% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 36% | BTTS probability 43% | Total xG 2.13. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 64% — total xG of 2.13 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 43% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Analysis Verdict

On the Poisson output, Piast Gliwice are the pick at 38% — marginal model lean. With a 30% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Piast Gliwice offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win. The opposing side holds a 32% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

Poisson projects 2.13 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 36% probability — reasonable conviction, supported by form averaging 2.0 goals per game.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is No at 43%. Form rates corroborate: GKS Katowice 50% | Piast Gliwice 40% BTTS from recent games.

The outsider holds a 32% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should not be treated as one. Proportionate stakes are appropriate given the genuine contest the data projects.
