Full Analysis
Studenternas IP plays host to Sirius versus IFK Goteborg in Allsvenskan, Regular Season - 28. Kick-off: Sunday 21 November 2021 at 16:30 UTC.
Form
Sirius (all games): 4W 1D 5L across 10 Allsvenskan fixtures this term — 1.30 PPG. Last five: W L L L W. They are averaging 1.40 goals per game and conceding 1.90 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. Both teams have scored in 70% of their games — a high BTTS rate that carries real weight in the goals markets. This season is still relatively young for Sirius, so this record blends games from this season and last.
Sirius's home record at Studenternas IP: 5W 0D 5L from 10 Allsvenskan appearances (1.50 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.30 goals scored and 1.30 conceded per game.
IFK Goteborg's overall Allsvenskan record this term: 5W 0D 5L from 10 games (1.50 PPG). Last five: W W W W L. Their scoring rate of 1.20 per game is modest, conceding 1.20 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 4 clean sheets in 10 outings (40%) underlines their defensive solidity. Both teams have scored in only 20% of their fixtures — a very low rate that strongly backs BTTS No. This season is still relatively young for IFK Goteborg, so this record blends games from this season and last.
IFK Goteborg's form when playing away from home: 4W 1D 5L across 10 road games this term (1.30 PPG). Away from home they average 1.30 goals scored and 1.70 conceded per game.
A near-identical PPG reading — 1.30 for Sirius, 1.50 for IFK Goteborg — means the form record is uninstructive on result selection. The goals and market sections will carry greater evidential weight.
Trading & In-Play
Sirius — key trading statistics (57 games, 28 at home): they score before half-time in 75% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 80% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 53% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 64% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 57% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 35%.
IFK Goteborg — key trading statistics (57 games, 28 at away): they score before half-time in 75% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 46% of the time; BTTS occurs in 54% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 46% of games (away games).
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Sirius 63% versus IFK Goteborg 51%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Sirius 58% | IFK Goteborg 47%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Sirius 1.34 xG and IFK Goteborg 1.38 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: Sirius attack 0.903 / defence 1.152 | IFK Goteborg attack 1.053 / defence 0.996. League average goals — home 1.490 / away 1.139. Data: 57 Sirius games / 57 IFK Goteborg games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Sirius 36% | Draw 26% | IFK Goteborg 38%. Fair-value odds: Sirius 2.78 | Draw 3.85 | IFK Goteborg 2.63. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome exceeds 45%. The draw at 26% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 51% | BTTS probability 55% | Total xG 2.72. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 51%/49% — the total xG of 2.72 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 55% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Final Verdict
Poisson rates IFK Goteborg as the most likely outcome at 38% — marginal model lean. Draw probability of 26% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on IFK Goteborg if the outright odds are short. The opposing side holds a 36% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.
Poisson projects 2.72 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 51% probability — reasonable conviction, supported by form averaging 2.8 goals per game.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 55% on Yes. Form rates are neutral: Sirius 50% | IFK Goteborg 50%.
The outsider holds a 36% 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.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
The points were shared at Studenternas IP, Regular Season - 28, as Sirius and IFK Goteborg drew 3-3 in the Allsvenskan. That is the final score; the rest of this report grades it against what the data forecast beforehand.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Sirius 1.34 xG and IFK Goteborg 1.38 xG, a combined 2.72. The scoreboard read 3-3 for 6 actual goals. Sirius beat their projection by 1.7 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in. IFK Goteborg outscored their 1.38 projection by 1.6. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Sirius attack 0.90 / defence 1.15 against IFK Goteborg attack 1.05 / defence 1.00, drawn from 57/57 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Sirius 36% | Draw 26% | IFK Goteborg 38%, with IFK Goteborg to win its most likely call at 38%. The actual draw had been the model's second-ranked read at 26%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 51%. The game delivered 6, so it went over — the model's lean was correct. Over 1.5 had been 76% and landed. Over 3.5 was 29% and came in. On both teams to score, the model sat at 55% and the match saw both sides score — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 53% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Sirius 58%, IFK Goteborg 47%), a base rate that agreed with today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 57%, which matched the both-scored outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Sirius's trading profile (57 games, 28 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 63% of their matches — today it did.
IFK Goteborg's trading profile (57 games, 28 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 51% of their matches — today it did.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — Sirius 1.25 PPG, IFK Goteborg 1.19 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the draw fit that even billing. Sirius (home/away splits) scored 3 against a 1.54 average — above their attacking norm and shipped 3 against a 1.54 concession average — a leakier day than usual. IFK Goteborg (home/away splits) scored 3 against a 1.21 average — above their attacking norm and shipped 3 against a 1.25 concession average — a leakier day than usual.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 2 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (hit). A mixed scorecard — the data caught the broad shape of the game but not every market.
