Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Gençlerbirliği S.K. 2.18 xG and Çorum FK 1.56 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: Gençlerbirliği S.K. attack 1.137 / defence 0.945 | Çorum FK attack 1.326 / defence 1.180. League average goals — home 1.622 / away 1.244. Çorum FK have an above-average attack strength of 1.326 — the away xG of 1.56 is driven by genuine attacking quality on the road. Data: 44 Gençlerbirliği S.K. games / 10 Çorum FK games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Gençlerbirliği S.K. 52% | Draw 21% | Çorum FK 28%. Fair-value odds: Gençlerbirliği S.K. 1.92 | Draw 4.76 | Çorum FK 3.57. Gençlerbirliği S.K. hold a narrow Poisson edge at 52% — the draw (21%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 72% | BTTS probability 70% | Total xG 3.74. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 72% — a total xG of 3.74 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 70% reflects that both xG figures (2.18 / 1.56) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.

Picks & Verdict

On the Poisson output, Gençlerbirliği S.K. are the pick at 52% — moderate model lean. Note a divergence: in-form Çorum FK (1.60 PPG) cuts against the Poisson lean — consider the strength-adjusted model over surface-level form results. The opposing side holds a 28% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

Poisson projects 3.74 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 72% probability — reasonable conviction, supported by form averaging 3.7 goals per game.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 70% on Yes. Form rates corroborate: Gençlerbirliği S.K. 60% | Çorum FK 67% BTTS from recent games.
