Low Scoring Predictions

Fixtures ranked by lowest predicted expected total goals β€” Saturday 31 December 2022

Our prediction model identifies fixtures where both teams have historically weak attack or strong defence. Fixtures at the top of this list have the lowest combined expected goals (xG) β€” making them the best candidates for Under 2.5 goals and low-scoring correct score markets.

Six matches cleared our threshold on Saturday 31 December 2022. Barcelona vs Espanyol led the list at 2.50 in the La Liga. The shortlist runs from 2.50 down to 2.08, so the tail is materially weaker than the top.

Of the six fixtures on this list that have since finished, four landed the low scoring market — 67%. This is a single day's sample and swings heavily; the rolling record across all fixtures is on the model accuracy page.

What does the Low Scoring market mean?

Low Scoring settles on whether a match is expected to stay tight, typically under 2.5 goals. It is one of the most commonly offered football markets and is priced by every major bookmaker.

How does Fixture360 calculate low scoring probability?

Our Poisson model estimates each team's expected goals from their attack and defence strengths, then builds a probability for every possible scoreline. The combined expected goals shown here is the sum of both teams' expected goals, ranked ascending so the tightest games surface first. No bookmaker odds are used as an input — the model is independent of the market.

six fixtures met the criteria, led by Barcelona vs Espanyol at 2.50 combined expected goals.
