Analysis
Maritimo make the trip to Estádio Dom Afonso Henriques to face Guimaraes in Primeira Liga, Regular Season - 9. The match kicks off on Friday 22 October 2021 at 20:15 UTC.
Form & Momentum
Guimaraes have collected 1.25 PPG across 8 Primeira Liga outings this season: 2W 4D 2L. Last five: D D D L W. They are averaging 1.12 goals per game and conceding 0.88 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 4 clean sheets from 8 games (50%) is a standout defensive return — they are keeping their net clean in more than half their matches. This season is still relatively young for Guimaraes, so this record blends games from this season and last.
At home at Estádio Dom Afonso Henriques, Guimaraes have gone 1W 1D 2L this season (4 games, 1.00 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.25 goals scored and 1.00 conceded per game. 2 clean sheets from 4 home games (50%) — they are an exceptionally hard side to score against at Estádio Dom Afonso Henriques. At home, both teams have scored in only 25% of games — reinforcing BTTS No as the home-venue-backed angle.
Maritimo's overall Primeira Liga record this term: 1W 4D 3L from 8 games (0.88 PPG). Last five: L D D L D. Their scoring rate of 0.75 per game is modest, conceding 1.12 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 2 clean sheets from 8 outings suggests some defensive organisation. This season is still relatively young for Maritimo, so this record blends games from this season and last.
Maritimo away from home this season: 1W 1D 2L from 4 away games — 1.00 PPG on the road. Away from home they average 0.75 goals scored and 1.00 conceded per game.
A near-identical PPG reading — 1.25 for Guimaraes, 0.88 for Maritimo — means the form record is uninstructive on result selection. The goals and market sections will carry greater evidential weight.
Trading Data
Guimaraes goal-timing and half-time pattern breakdown (8 games, 4 at home): they score before half-time in 25% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 40% of the time; BTTS occurs in 25% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 50% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 38%; they keep a clean sheet 50% of the time; they fail to score in 50% of games.
Maritimo goal-timing and half-time pattern breakdown (8 games, 4 at away): they score before half-time in 50% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 50% of the time; BTTS occurs in 50% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 50% of games (away games); they fail to score in 50% of games.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Guimaraes 38% versus Maritimo 50%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Guimaraes 50% | Maritimo 38%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Guimaraes 1.11 xG and Maritimo 0.92 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: Guimaraes attack 0.986 / defence 1.084 | Maritimo attack 0.693 / defence 1.107. League average goals — home 1.013 / away 1.218. Data: 8 Guimaraes games / 8 Maritimo games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Guimaraes 36% | Draw 39% | Maritimo 26%. Fair-value odds: Guimaraes 2.78 | Draw 2.56 | Maritimo 3.85. The draw (39%) is the Poisson-preferred outcome — neither side is more likely to win than to draw, making draw-inclusive markets the most model-aligned approach.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 33% | BTTS probability 44% | Total xG 2.02. Under 2.5 is the strongly backed market at 67% probability — total xG of 2.02 sits well below the 2.5 threshold. The model is projecting a tight, low-scoring match based on both sides' defensive quality. BTTS probability of 44% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Final Verdict
The Poisson model's preferred outcome is the draw at 39% — neither side is more likely to win than to draw. Draw-inclusive markets are the most model-aligned approach. Home win at 36% and away win at 26% are close enough that backing either outright carries significant draw exposure.
The Poisson model projects 2.02 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 33% — reasonable confidence, supported by form averaging 2.0 goals per game.
Poisson assigns a 44% probability to BTTS No based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate: Guimaraes 25% | Maritimo 50% BTTS from recent games.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Guimaraes beat Maritimo 2-1 at Estádio Dom Afonso Henriques, Regular Season - 9, in the Primeira Liga. 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 Guimaraes 1.11 xG and Maritimo 0.92 xG, a combined 2.02. The scoreboard read 2-1 for 3 actual goals. Guimaraes beat their projection by 0.9 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Guimaraes attack 0.99 / defence 1.08 against Maritimo attack 0.69 / defence 1.11, drawn from 8/8 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Guimaraes 36% | Draw 39% | Maritimo 26%, with the draw its most likely call at 39%. The actual Guimaraes win had been the model's second-ranked read at 36%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 33%. The game delivered 3, so it went over — against the model's lean. Over 1.5 had been 64% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 44% and the match saw both sides score — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 44% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Guimaraes 50%, Maritimo 38%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 44%, which did not match the both-scored outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Guimaraes's trading profile (8 games, 4 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 38% of their matches — today it did; they keep a clean sheet 50% of the time, and conceded here.
Maritimo's trading profile (8 games, 4 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 50% of their matches — today it did.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — Guimaraes 1.25 PPG, Maritimo 0.88 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Guimaraes win broke the near-deadlock. Maritimo (home/away splits) shipped 2 against a 1.00 concession average — a leakier day than usual.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 0 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), 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.
