Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Mlada Boleslav 1.05 xG and Slavia Praha 1.59 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: Mlada Boleslav attack 1.102 / defence 0.853 | Slavia Praha attack 1.446 / defence 0.679. League average goals — home 1.409 / away 1.288. Slavia Praha's defence strength of 0.679 is below average — they are conceding at a rate that inflates the home xG figure. Slavia Praha have an above-average attack strength of 1.446 — the away xG of 1.59 is driven by genuine attacking quality on the road. Data: 35 Mlada Boleslav games / 37 Slavia Praha games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Mlada Boleslav 25% | Draw 26% | Slavia Praha 49%. Fair-value odds: Mlada Boleslav 4.00 | Draw 3.85 | Slavia Praha 2.04. Slavia Praha hold a narrow Poisson edge at 49% — the draw (26%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 49% | BTTS probability 52% | Total xG 2.64. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 49%/51% — the total xG of 2.64 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 52% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
