Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Gimcheon Sangmu FC 2.07 xG and Suwon City FC 1.37 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: Gimcheon Sangmu FC attack 1.257 / defence 0.870 | Suwon City FC attack 1.276 / defence 1.182. League average goals — home 1.392 / away 1.235. Gimcheon Sangmu FC carry an above-average attack strength of 1.257 — their λ of 2.07 reflects genuine attacking quality above the league norm. Suwon City FC have an above-average attack strength of 1.276 — the away xG of 1.37 is driven by genuine attacking quality on the road. Data: 59 Gimcheon Sangmu FC games / 59 Suwon City FC games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Gimcheon Sangmu FC 54% | Draw 21% | Suwon City FC 25%. Fair-value odds: Gimcheon Sangmu FC 1.85 | Draw 4.76 | Suwon City FC 4.00. Gimcheon Sangmu FC hold a narrow Poisson edge at 54% — the draw (21%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 67% | BTTS probability 65% | Total xG 3.44. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 67% — a total xG of 3.44 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 65% reflects that both xG figures (2.07 / 1.37) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.

Final Verdict

Poisson rates Gimcheon Sangmu FC as the most likely outcome at 54% — moderate model lean.

The Poisson model projects 3.44 xG in total — Over 2.5 at 67% — strong confidence, supported by form averaging 2.9 goals per game and H2H averaging 3.6 goals per meeting.

Poisson assigns a 65% probability to BTTS Yes based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate: Gimcheon Sangmu FC 50% | Suwon City FC 70% BTTS from recent games.
