Current Form
Fortuna Düsseldorf's record over their last 10 games: 5W 2D 3L (1.70 PPG). Last five: L W L L D. Offensively they are averaging 1.60 goals per game, with 1.30 conceded. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings (30%).
In front of their own supporters, Fortuna Düsseldorf have posted 4W 3D 3L from their last 10 home games — 1.50 PPG. At home they are averaging 1.40 goals scored and 1.60 conceded per game.
SV Elversberg (all games): 5W 2D 3L across their last 10 — 1.70 points per game. Last five: W D W L W. Their attacking form is sharp — 2.00 goals per game is a high-output rate that commands respect in the goals markets. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings (30%). Both teams have scored in 60% of their games — a noteworthy BTTS rate that supports the Yes market.
On the road, SV Elversberg have gone 2W 3D 5L in their last 10 away fixtures (0.90 PPG). Away from home they average 1.20 goals scored and 2.00 conceded per game. Their away PPG of 0.90 is notably below their overall 1.70 — form away from home has been a clear weakness recently.
A near-identical PPG reading — 1.70 for Fortuna Düsseldorf, 1.70 for SV Elversberg — means the form record is uninstructive on result selection. The goals and market sections will carry greater evidential weight.
H2H History
The head-to-head record is closely matched — across the 2 H2H matches in our data, Fortuna Düsseldorf edge it 1 wins to 0, with 1 draw. Neither side has a commanding advantage. With only 2 H2H matches to go on, treat this as a light input.
The 2 H2H matches in our data have been high-scoring — 3.5 goals per game on average — which backs the Over 2.5 market from the head-to-head side. The most recent of those, on 10 Feb 2024, ended Fortuna Düsseldorf 1–1 SV Elversberg — a draw.
With the win record balanced, the strongest H2H signal is in the goals market — at 3.5 goals per game, Over 2.5 is the cleaner angle from the head-to-head data.
Trading & In-Play
Fortuna Düsseldorf — key trading statistics (last 46 games, 23 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 78% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 89% of the time; of the 15 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 47%; BTTS occurs in 61% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 52% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 41%.
SV Elversberg — key trading statistics (last 46 games, 23 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 78% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 70% of the time; of the 17 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 35%; BTTS occurs in 65% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 61% of games (away games); Over 3.5 in 44%.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Fortuna Düsseldorf 56% versus SV Elversberg 61%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Fortuna Düsseldorf 59% | SV Elversberg 65%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Fortuna Düsseldorf 1.43 xG and SV Elversberg 1.41 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: Fortuna Düsseldorf attack 0.945 / defence 1.146 | SV Elversberg attack 0.850 / defence 0.981. League average goals — home 1.545 / away 1.451. Data: built from Fortuna Düsseldorf's last 46 games and SV Elversberg's last 46.
Result probabilities: Fortuna Düsseldorf 36% | Draw 28% | SV Elversberg 35%. Fair-value odds: Fortuna Düsseldorf 2.76 | Draw 3.53 | SV Elversberg 2.82. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome reaches 45%. The draw at 28% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 54% | BTTS Yes probability 59% | Total xG 2.85. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 54%/46% — the total xG of 2.85 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS Yes at 59% is only a slight lean — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is Fortuna Düsseldorf at 36% — marginal model lean. Draw probability of 28% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Fortuna Düsseldorf if the outright odds are short. 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 2.85 xG in total — Over 2.5 at 54% — reasonable conviction, supported by recent form (Fortuna Düsseldorf's last 10 home games and SV Elversberg's last 10 away games) averaging 3.1 goals per game.
Poisson assigns a 59% probability to BTTS Yes based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates are neutral — both teams scored in: Fortuna Düsseldorf 50% (last 10 home games) | SV Elversberg 50% (last 10 away games).

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
SV Elversberg beat Fortuna Düsseldorf 0-2 at Merkur Spiel-Arena, Regular Season - 13, in the 2. Bundesliga. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Fortuna Düsseldorf 1.43 xG and SV Elversberg 1.41 xG, a combined 2.85. The scoreboard read 0-2 for 2 actual goals. Fortuna Düsseldorf fell 1.4 short of their projected output. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Fortuna Düsseldorf attack 0.94 / defence 1.15 against SV Elversberg attack 0.85 / defence 0.98, drawn from 46/46 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Fortuna Düsseldorf 36% | Draw 28% | SV Elversberg 35%, with Fortuna Düsseldorf to win its most likely call at 36%. The actual SV Elversberg win had been the model's second-ranked read at 35%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 54%. The game delivered 2, so it stayed under — the opposite of the projected direction. Over 1.5 had been 79% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 59% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 62% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Fortuna Düsseldorf 59%, SV Elversberg 65%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 59%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Fortuna Düsseldorf's trading profile (46 games, 23 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 56% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 30% of the time, and conceded here.
SV Elversberg's trading profile (46 games, 23 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 61% of their matches — today it did not.
Form vs Result
On form, Fortuna Düsseldorf arrived the stronger side — 1.80 PPG against 1.35. Form was overturned, with SV Elversberg winning despite arriving in poorer recent shape. Fortuna Düsseldorf (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.65 scoring average — below par going forward. SV Elversberg (home/away splits) conceded 0 against a 1.78 average — tighter than their form line.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 0 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss), form (miss). The data was on the wrong side of this result more often than not — a reminder that a single match sits well inside the model's variance.
