Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Chornomorets 0.93 xG and Polessya 1.61 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: Chornomorets attack 0.850 / defence 1.150 | Polessya attack 1.114 / defence 0.848. League average goals — home 1.294 / away 1.253. Data: 0 Chornomorets games / 30 Polessya games used (PrevSeason). Note: current-season sample is too small — prior-season data is carrying the calculation. Model confidence is reduced; treat probabilities as directional rather than precise.

Result probabilities: Chornomorets 21% | Draw 26% | Polessya 53%. Fair-value odds: Chornomorets 4.76 | Draw 3.85 | Polessya 1.89. Polessya hold a narrow Poisson edge at 53% — the draw (26%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 47% | BTTS probability 49% | Total xG 2.54. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 47%/53% — the total xG of 2.54 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 49% 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 Polessya at 53% — moderate model lean. With a 26% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Polessya offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.

Poisson projects 2.54 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 47% probability — Poisson-only — limited corroboration conviction — though H2H averaging only 3.3 goals per meeting points in the other direction.

The Poisson model is drawing on PrevSeason data (0 games minimum) — early-season projections carry additional uncertainty. Weight the live form and odds signals accordingly.
