✍️ Match Preview
Analysis & Preview
A Serie B encounter, Regular Season - 26 sees Perugia travel to Arena Garibaldi - Stadio Romeo Anconetani to take on Pisa. The game is scheduled for Friday 24 February 2023, 19:30 UTC.
Form Analysis
Looking at all fixtures this season, Pisa stand at 4W 4D 2L from 10 Serie B matches — 1.60 PPG. Last five: D D L W D. They are averaging 1.20 goals per game and conceding 0.60 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. Defensively, conceding just 0.60 per game is an exceptional defensive record — one of the tightest in the division. 6 clean sheets from 10 games (60%) 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 Pisa, so this record blends games from this season and last.
Pisa's home record at Arena Garibaldi - Stadio Romeo Anconetani: 5W 2D 3L from 10 Serie B appearances (1.70 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.70 goals scored and 0.90 conceded per game.
Across all Serie B games this season, Perugia have recorded 5W 2D 3L from 10 outings — 1.70 PPG. Last five: L W W L W. They are scoring at 1.80 per game and conceding 1.00. 5 clean sheets from 10 games (50%) is an exceptional defensive record — they are keeping clean sheets more often than not. Both teams have scored in just 30% of their games, reflecting a regular tendency to keep or record clean sheets. This season is still relatively young for Perugia, so this record blends games from this season and last.
When travelling in Serie B this season, Perugia have posted 3W 2D 5L from 10 away outings — 1.10 PPG. Away from home they average 1.00 goals scored and 1.10 conceded per game. Away from home, both teams have scored in only 30% of games — a low rate that backs BTTS No when they travel. Their away PPG of 1.10 is notably below their overall 1.70 — form away from home has been a clear weakness this season.
The form comparison is too close to call — 1.60 PPG (Pisa) versus 1.70 (Perugia). When the figures are this level, no pick can be reliably derived from recent results alone.
H2H Record
The H2H landscape is flat: 3 previous encounters have yielded 1 wins for Pisa, 0 for Perugia and 2 draws. A neutral reading in isolation.
The 3 previous meetings have averaged 2.7 goals per game — a neutral rate that provides no strong lean on the goals market from the H2H alone. The most recent clash, on 1 Oct 2022, ended 3–1 with Pisa winning.
The head-to-head offers no strong directional steer in either the result or goals markets. Form, the predictive model and current market pricing should carry more weight than the historical record for this fixture.
In-Play Profile
Pisa in-play tendencies (64 games, 31 at home): they score before half-time in 81% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 47% of the time; BTTS occurs in 52% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 42% of games (home games).
Perugia in-play tendencies (64 games, 31 at away): they score before half-time in 77% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 60% of the time; BTTS occurs in 48% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 39% of games (away games); they fail to score in 31% of games.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Pisa 52% versus Perugia 45%; no strong lean in either direction. Under 2.5 goals has backing from the in-play data — both teams register low Over 2.5 rates (Pisa 38% | Perugia 34%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Pisa 1.24 xG and Perugia 0.96 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: Pisa attack 1.096 / defence 1.040 | Perugia attack 0.922 / defence 0.966. League average goals — home 1.175 / away 1.001. Data: 63 Pisa games / 63 Perugia games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Pisa 42% | Draw 30% | Perugia 28%. Fair-value odds: Pisa 2.38 | Draw 3.33 | Perugia 3.57. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome exceeds 45%. The draw at 30% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 38% | BTTS probability 45% | Total xG 2.20. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 62% — total xG of 2.20 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 45% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Analysis Verdict
On the Poisson output, Pisa are the pick at 42% — marginal model lean. With a 30% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Pisa offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win. The opposing side holds a 28% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.
On the goals line, Poisson's 2.20 combined xG gives a 38% probability to Under 2.5 — Poisson-only — limited corroboration.
Poisson assigns a 45% probability to BTTS No based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate: Pisa 50% | Perugia 30% BTTS from recent games.

How the Model Works This Match
Working from Pisa's attack rating (1.10) and Perugia's defence rating (0.97), the model arrives at 1.24 expected goals for the home side. The same calculation in reverse, Perugia's attack versus Pisa's defence, projects 0.96 expected goals for the visitors.
These ratings are built from 63/63 games of current-season data — a full enough sample to trust.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Pisa beat Perugia 2-1 at Arena Garibaldi - Stadio Romeo Anconetani, Regular Season - 26, in the Serie B. The remainder of the report sets that outcome against the pre-match model, the markets and the teams' data profiles.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Pisa 1.24 xG and Perugia 0.96 xG, a combined 2.20. The scoreboard read 2-1 for 3 actual goals. Both sides finished within a goal of their individual projections, so the scoreline sat close to the model's expected shape. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Pisa attack 1.10 / defence 1.04 against Perugia attack 0.92 / defence 0.97, drawn from 63/63 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Pisa 42% | Draw 30% | Perugia 28%, with Pisa to win its most likely call at 42%. The result followed the model's preferred path, landing its top-rated outcome.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 38%. The game delivered 3, so it went over — against the model's lean. Over 1.5 had been 65% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 45% and the match saw both sides score — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 36% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Pisa 38%, Perugia 34%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 48%, which did not match the both-scored outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Pisa's trading profile (64 games, 31 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 52% of their matches — today it did; they keep a clean sheet 36% of the time, and conceded here.
Perugia's trading profile (64 games, 31 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 45% of their matches — today it did; they keep a clean sheet 36% of the time, and conceded here.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — Pisa 1.50 PPG, Perugia 1.36 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Pisa win broke the near-deadlock. Perugia (home/away splits) shipped 2 against a 1.13 concession average — a leakier day than usual.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 1 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (hit), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss). This one broke away from the data — most of the pre-match signals were overturned by how the ninety minutes actually played out.
