Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Al Kholood 0.88 xG and Al-Qadisiyah FC 2.44 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: Al Kholood attack 0.664 / defence 1.268 | Al-Qadisiyah FC attack 1.370 / defence 0.868. League average goals — home 1.518 / away 1.403. Al Kholood's attack strength of 0.664 is below the league average — the 0.88 xG projection reflects a team that scores at a discount to the division norm. Al-Qadisiyah FC have an above-average attack strength of 1.370 — the away xG of 2.44 is driven by genuine attacking quality on the road.

Result probabilities: Al Kholood 11% | Draw 18% | Al-Qadisiyah FC 71%. Fair-value odds: Al Kholood 9.09 | Draw 5.56 | Al-Qadisiyah FC 1.41. The model has a clear lean to Al-Qadisiyah FC (71%) — a 60pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 64% | BTTS probability 54% | Total xG 3.31. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 64% — the 3.31 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS probability of 54% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Final Verdict

Poisson rates Al-Qadisiyah FC as the most likely outcome at 71% — clear model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 18% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.

The Poisson model projects 3.31 xG in total — Over 2.5 at 64% — strong confidence, supported by form averaging 3.1 goals per game and H2H averaging 4.0 goals per meeting.

Poisson assigns a 54% probability to BTTS Yes based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate: Al Kholood 40% | Al-Qadisiyah FC 70% BTTS from recent games.
