Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Veres Rivne 1.10 xG and Kryvbas KR 1.13 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: Veres Rivne attack 0.950 / defence 1.116 | Kryvbas KR attack 0.972 / defence 0.942. League average goals — home 1.226 / away 1.042. Data: 36 Veres Rivne games / 36 Kryvbas KR games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Veres Rivne 32% | Draw 35% | Kryvbas KR 33%. Fair-value odds: Veres Rivne 3.12 | Draw 2.86 | Kryvbas KR 3.03. The draw (35%) is the Poisson-preferred outcome — neither side is more likely to win than to draw, making draw-inclusive markets the most model-aligned approach.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 38% | BTTS probability 48% | Total xG 2.23. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 62% — total xG of 2.23 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 48% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Picks & Verdict

The Poisson model's preferred outcome is the draw at 35% — neither side is more likely to win than to draw. Draw-inclusive markets are the most model-aligned approach. Home win at 32% and away win at 33% are close enough that backing either outright carries significant draw exposure.

The Poisson model projects 2.23 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 38% — Poisson-only — limited corroboration confidence — though H2H averaging only 2.8 goals per meeting points in the other direction.

Poisson assigns a 48% probability to BTTS No based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates are neutral: Veres Rivne 50% | Kryvbas KR 50%.

The outsider holds a 32% 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.
