Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Shabab Al Ahli Dubai 1.92 xG and Al-Jazira 1.11 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: Shabab Al Ahli Dubai attack 1.548 / defence 0.805 | Al-Jazira attack 0.997 / defence 0.871. League average goals — home 1.423 / away 1.382. Shabab Al Ahli Dubai carry an above-average attack strength of 1.548 — their λ of 1.92 reflects genuine attacking quality above the league norm. Data: 46 Shabab Al Ahli Dubai games / 46 Al-Jazira games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Shabab Al Ahli Dubai 56% | Draw 22% | Al-Jazira 22%. Fair-value odds: Shabab Al Ahli Dubai 1.79 | Draw 4.55 | Al-Jazira 4.55. The model has a clear lean to Shabab Al Ahli Dubai (56%) — a 34pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 58% | BTTS probability 57% | Total xG 3.03. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 58% — the 3.03 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS probability of 57% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Summary & Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is Shabab Al Ahli Dubai at 56% — clear model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 22% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.
On the goals line, Poisson's 3.03 combined xG gives a 58% probability to Over 2.5 — strong, supported by form averaging 2.9 goals per game and H2H averaging 3.4 goals per meeting.
Poisson assigns a 57% probability to BTTS Yes based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate: Shabab Al Ahli Dubai 50% | Al-Jazira 60% BTTS from recent games.
