Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Al Ain 0.91 xG and Shabab Al Ahli Dubai 1.37 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: Al Ain attack 1.122 / defence 0.667 | Shabab Al Ahli Dubai attack 1.536 / defence 0.567. League average goals — home 1.427 / away 1.338. Shabab Al Ahli Dubai's defence strength of 0.567 is below average — they are conceding at a rate that inflates the home xG figure. Shabab Al Ahli Dubai have an above-average attack strength of 1.536 — the away xG of 1.37 is driven by genuine attacking quality on the road. Al Ain's defence rating of 0.667 is below average — the home backline is amplifying the visitor's projected output. Data: 47 Al Ain games / 47 Shabab Al Ahli Dubai games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Al Ain 25% | Draw 28% | Shabab Al Ahli Dubai 47%. Fair-value odds: Al Ain 4.00 | Draw 3.57 | Shabab Al Ahli Dubai 2.13. Shabab Al Ahli Dubai hold a narrow Poisson edge at 47% — the draw (28%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 40% | BTTS probability 45% | Total xG 2.28. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 60% — total xG of 2.28 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 45% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Our Verdict
