Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Al Urooba 1.52 xG and Dibba Al Hisn 1.64 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 Urooba attack 0.671 / defence 1.402 | Dibba Al Hisn attack 0.852 / defence 1.258. League average goals — home 1.796 / away 1.373. Al Urooba's attack strength of 0.671 is below the league average — the 1.52 xG projection reflects a team that scores at a discount to the division norm. Dibba Al Hisn bring a strong defensive rating of 1.258 — this is suppressing Al Urooba's projected output below what their attack strength alone would suggest. Data: 12 Al Urooba games / 11 Dibba Al Hisn games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Al Urooba 35% | Draw 24% | Dibba Al Hisn 41%. Fair-value odds: Al Urooba 2.86 | Draw 4.17 | Dibba Al Hisn 2.44. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome exceeds 45%. The draw at 24% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 61% | BTTS probability 63% | Total xG 3.16. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 61% — the 3.16 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 63% reflects that both xG figures (1.52 / 1.64) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.

Summary & Verdict

The Poisson model's primary lean is Dibba Al Hisn at 41% — marginal model lean. With a 24% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Dibba Al Hisn offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win. The opposing side holds a 35% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

The Poisson model projects 3.16 xG in total — Over 2.5 at 61% — reasonable confidence, supported by form averaging 3.7 goals per game.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 63% on Yes. Form rates corroborate: Al Urooba 67% | Dibba Al Hisn 83% BTTS from recent games.

The outsider holds a 35% 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.
