Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Al-Jazira 1.91 xG and Al Wahda FC 1.40 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-Jazira attack 1.150 / defence 0.986 | Al Wahda FC attack 1.007 / defence 0.894. League average goals — home 1.857 / away 1.406. Data: 37 Al-Jazira games / 37 Al Wahda FC games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Al-Jazira 48% | Draw 25% | Al Wahda FC 27%. Fair-value odds: Al-Jazira 2.08 | Draw 4.00 | Al Wahda FC 3.70. Al-Jazira hold a narrow Poisson edge at 48% — the draw (25%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 64% | BTTS probability 65% | Total xG 3.31. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 64% — the 3.31 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 65% reflects that both xG figures (1.91 / 1.40) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.

Final Verdict

Poisson rates Al-Jazira as the most likely outcome at 48% — moderate model lean. Draw probability of 25% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Al-Jazira if the outright odds are short.

Poisson projects 3.31 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 64% probability — strong conviction, supported by form averaging 3.3 goals per game and H2H averaging 3.0 goals per meeting.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 65% on Yes. Form rates are neutral: Al-Jazira 60% | Al Wahda FC 40%.
