Analysis
St. Truiden make the trip to Stade Joseph Mariën to face Union St. Gilloise in Jupiler Pro League, Regular Season - 27. The match kicks off on Sunday 13 February 2022 at 15:00 UTC.
Form
Union St. Gilloise (all games): 8W 2D 0L across 10 Jupiler Pro League fixtures this term — 2.60 PPG. Last five: W W D W W. Offensively they are averaging 1.80 goals per game, with 0.40 conceded. Defensively, conceding just 0.40 per game is an exceptional defensive record — one of the tightest in the division. 7 clean sheets from 10 games (70%) is a standout defensive return — they are keeping their net clean in more than half their matches. Both teams have scored in just 30% of their matches, indicating a tendency toward clean sheets or low-scoring outcomes. This season is still relatively young for Union St. Gilloise, so this record blends games from this season and last.
Union St. Gilloise's home record at Stade Joseph Mariën: 7W 1D 2L from 10 Jupiler Pro League appearances (2.20 PPG). They are averaging 2.00 goals per home game — a prolific scoring rate in front of their own fans. 4 home clean sheets from 10 games (40%) — a solid defensive base on their own ground. BTTS has landed in 60% of their home matches — a rate that supports the Yes angle in this fixture.
St. Truiden's overall Jupiler Pro League record this term: 3W 1D 6L from 10 games (1.00 PPG). Last five: L W D L W. Their scoring rate of 1.20 per game is modest, conceding 1.40 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market. This season is still relatively young for St. Truiden, so this record blends games from this season and last.
St. Truiden's form when playing away from home: 4W 1D 5L across 10 road games this term (1.30 PPG). Away from home they average 1.00 goals scored and 1.50 conceded per game.
The points-per-game gap of 1.60 in Union St. Gilloise's favour (2.60 vs 1.00) is a statistically meaningful difference. The hosts are the form pick here, with draw protection the sensible hedge given the away side's competitiveness.
Trading & In-Play
Union St. Gilloise — key trading statistics (26 games, 13 at home): they score before half-time in 77% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 71% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 57% of those occasions; they lead at the break 54% of the time; BTTS occurs in 46% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 62% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 38%; they keep a clean sheet 50% of the time.
St. Truiden — key trading statistics (26 games, 13 at away): they score before half-time in 77% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 86% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 86% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 46% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 38% of games (away games).
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Union St. Gilloise 46% versus St. Truiden 62%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Union St. Gilloise 62% | St. Truiden 54%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Union St. Gilloise 1.61 xG and St. Truiden 0.89 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: Union St. Gilloise attack 1.187 / defence 0.863 | St. Truiden attack 0.714 / defence 1.217. League average goals — home 1.117 / away 1.441. St. Truiden bring a strong defensive rating of 1.217 — this is suppressing Union St. Gilloise's projected output below what their attack strength alone would suggest. Data: 26 Union St. Gilloise games / 26 St. Truiden games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Union St. Gilloise 54% | Draw 25% | St. Truiden 21%. Fair-value odds: Union St. Gilloise 1.85 | Draw 4.00 | St. Truiden 4.76. Union St. Gilloise hold a narrow Poisson edge at 54% — the draw (25%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 46% | BTTS probability 47% | Total xG 2.50. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 46%/54% — the total xG of 2.50 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 47% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Final Verdict
Poisson rates Union St. Gilloise as the most likely outcome at 54% — moderate model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw probability of 25% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Union St. Gilloise if the outright odds are short.
Poisson projects 2.50 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 46% probability — Poisson-only — limited corroboration conviction.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 47% on No. Form rates are neutral: Union St. Gilloise 60% | St. Truiden 50%.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
St. Truiden beat Union St. Gilloise 0-1 at Stade Joseph Mariën, Regular Season - 27, in the Jupiler Pro League. That is the final score; the rest of this report grades it against what the data forecast beforehand.
The Model vs The Result

Union St. Gilloise fell 1.6 short of their projected output.

On the result, the model split it Union St. Gilloise 54% | Draw 25% | St. Truiden 21%, with Union St. Gilloise to win its most likely call at 54%. Instead the game produced a St. Truiden win, an outcome the model had rated at just 21% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 46%. The game delivered 1, so it stayed under — the model's lean was correct. Over 1.5 had been 71% and missed.

Historically the two sides average 58% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Union St. Gilloise 62%, St. Truiden 54%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 54%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.
