Full Analysis
Saqr bin Mohammad al Qassimi Stadium plays host to Khorfakkan versus Sharjah FC in Pro League, Regular Season - 10. Kick-off: Saturday 20 November 2021 at 14:00 UTC.
Form
Khorfakkan (all games): 4W 3D 2L across 9 Pro League fixtures this term — 1.67 PPG. Last five: W W D W W. Offensively they are averaging 1.67 goals per game, with 1.22 conceded. 3 clean sheets from 9 outings provides some defensive foundation. This season is still relatively young for Khorfakkan, so this record blends games from this season and last.
In front of their own supporters this season, Khorfakkan have posted 3W 1D 1L at Saqr bin Mohammad al Qassimi Stadium — 2.00 PPG. At home they are averaging 1.60 goals scored and 0.80 conceded per game. 3 clean sheets from 5 home games (60%) — they are an exceptionally hard side to score against at Saqr bin Mohammad al Qassimi Stadium.
Sharjah FC have collected 1.44 PPG across 9 Pro League outings this season: 4W 1D 4L. Last five: W L L D L. Their scoring rate of 1.33 per game is modest, conceding 1.78 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 2 clean sheets from 9 outings suggests some defensive organisation. This season is still relatively young for Sharjah FC, so this record blends games from this season and last.
When travelling in Pro League this season, Sharjah FC have posted 1W 1D 2L from 4 away outings — 1.00 PPG. Away from home they average 1.50 goals scored and 1.75 conceded per game.
Both sides are running at similar form levels — 1.67 PPG for Khorfakkan against 1.44 for Sharjah FC. There is no clear form edge to exploit here; other signals need to take the lead.
Trading Data
Khorfakkan goal-timing and half-time pattern breakdown (9 games, 4 at home): they score before half-time in 75% of fixtures in home games; BTTS occurs in 25% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 50% of games (home games).
Sharjah FC goal-timing and half-time pattern breakdown (9 games, 4 at away): they score before half-time in 75% of fixtures in away games; 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 33% of games.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Khorfakkan 56% versus Sharjah FC 44%; no strong lean in either direction. Over 2.5 goals is well-supported by both sides' in-play profiles (Khorfakkan 67% | Sharjah FC 67%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Khorfakkan 1.54 xG and Sharjah FC 1.04 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: Khorfakkan attack 1.115 / defence 0.916 | Sharjah FC attack 0.859 / defence 1.335. League average goals — home 1.035 / away 1.317. Sharjah FC bring a strong defensive rating of 1.335 — this is suppressing Khorfakkan's projected output below what their attack strength alone would suggest. Data: 9 Khorfakkan games / 9 Sharjah FC games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Khorfakkan 47% | Draw 29% | Sharjah FC 24%. Fair-value odds: Khorfakkan 2.13 | Draw 3.45 | Sharjah FC 4.17. Khorfakkan hold a narrow Poisson edge at 47% — the draw (29%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 48% | BTTS probability 52% | Total xG 2.58. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 48%/52% — the total xG of 2.58 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.
Final Verdict
Poisson rates Khorfakkan as the most likely outcome at 47% — moderate model lean. Draw probability of 29% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Khorfakkan if the outright odds are short.
The Poisson model projects 2.58 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 48% — Poisson-only — limited corroboration confidence.
Poisson assigns a 52% probability to BTTS Yes based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates are neutral: Khorfakkan 40% | Sharjah FC 50%.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Sharjah FC beat Khorfakkan 1-3 at Saqr bin Mohammad al Qassimi Stadium, Regular Season - 10, in the Pro League. 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 Khorfakkan 1.54 xG and Sharjah FC 1.04 xG, a combined 2.58. The scoreboard read 1-3 for 4 actual goals. Sharjah FC outscored their 1.04 projection by 2.0. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Khorfakkan attack 1.11 / defence 0.92 against Sharjah FC attack 0.86 / defence 1.33, drawn from 9/9 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Khorfakkan 47% | Draw 29% | Sharjah FC 24%, with Khorfakkan to win its most likely call at 47%. Instead the game produced a Sharjah FC win, an outcome the model had rated at just 24% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.
Goals & Markets

Their combined BTTS history runs at 50%, which matched the both-scored outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Khorfakkan's trading profile (9 games, 4 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 56% of their matches — today it did; they keep a clean sheet 33% of the time, and conceded here.
Sharjah FC's trading profile (9 games, 4 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 44% of their matches — today it did.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — Khorfakkan 1.67 PPG, Sharjah FC 1.44 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Sharjah FC win broke the near-deadlock. Khorfakkan (home/away splits) shipped 3 against a 0.25 concession average — a leakier day than usual. Sharjah FC (home/away splits) scored 3 against a 1.50 average — above their attacking norm.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 1 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (hit). This one broke away from the data — most of the pre-match signals were overturned by how the ninety minutes actually played out.
