Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Falkenbergs FF 1.35 xG and IK brage 1.22 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: Falkenbergs FF attack 0.934 / defence 0.868 | IK brage attack 0.962 / defence 1.009. League average goals — home 1.428 / away 1.458. Data: 44 Falkenbergs FF games / 44 IK brage games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Falkenbergs FF 40% | Draw 27% | IK brage 34%. Fair-value odds: Falkenbergs FF 2.50 | Draw 3.70 | IK brage 2.94. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome exceeds 45%. The draw at 27% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 47% | BTTS probability 52% | Total xG 2.56. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 47%/53% — the total xG of 2.56 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 52% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Summary & Verdict

The Poisson model's primary lean is Falkenbergs FF at 40% — marginal model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. With a 27% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Falkenbergs FF offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win. The opposing side holds a 34% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

The Poisson model projects 2.56 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 47% — Poisson-only — limited corroboration confidence — though H2H averaging only 3.6 goals per meeting points in the other direction.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 52% on Yes. Form rates are neutral: Falkenbergs FF 40% | IK brage 50%.
