Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Oviedo 0.53 xG and Celta Vigo 1.41 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: Oviedo attack 0.459 / defence 1.031 | Celta Vigo attack 1.249 / defence 0.834. League average goals — home 1.374 / away 1.094. Oviedo's attack strength of 0.459 is below the league average — the 0.53 xG projection reflects a team that scores at a discount to the division norm. Celta Vigo have an above-average attack strength of 1.249 — the away xG of 1.41 is driven by genuine attacking quality on the road. Data: 16 Oviedo games / 54 Celta Vigo games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Oviedo 14% | Draw 27% | Celta Vigo 59%. Fair-value odds: Oviedo 7.14 | Draw 3.70 | Celta Vigo 1.69. The model has a clear lean to Celta Vigo (59%) — a 45pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 31% | BTTS probability 31% | Total xG 1.94. Under 2.5 is the strongly backed market at 69% probability — total xG of 1.94 sits well below the 2.5 threshold. The model is projecting a tight, low-scoring match based on both sides' defensive quality. BTTS No has firm model support at 69% — Oviedo's lower xG of 0.53 creates a meaningful probability of a scoring blank, which suppresses the BTTS Yes probability to 31%.

Verdict

The Poisson model's primary lean is Celta Vigo at 59% — clear model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 27% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.

Poisson projects 1.94 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 31% probability — reasonable conviction, supported by form averaging 2.1 goals per game.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 31% on No. Form rates corroborate: Oviedo 12% | Celta Vigo 70% BTTS from recent games.
