Form
Notts County (all games): 4W 2D 4L across their last 10 — 1.40 PPG. Last five: W L W L D. Offensively they are averaging 1.70 goals per game, with 1.40 conceded. 4 clean sheets in 10 games (40%) reflects a solid defensive base.
Notts County at home: 2W 2D 6L from their last 10 home games — 0.80 PPG on home soil. At home they are averaging 1.60 goals scored and 2.30 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 70% of their home games — an outstanding BTTS rate that is a key data point for this fixture. Somewhat surprisingly, their home PPG of 0.80 lags behind their overall 1.40 — home advantage has not translated into better results recently.
Fleetwood Town's record over their last 10 games: 4W 2D 4L (1.40 PPG). Last five: W L W W W. Their scoring rate of 1.00 per game is modest, conceding 1.20 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 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.
On the road, Fleetwood Town have gone 2W 4D 4L in their last 10 away fixtures (1.00 PPG). Away from home they average 1.00 goals scored and 1.60 conceded per game.
Both sides are running at similar form levels — 1.40 PPG for Notts County against 1.40 for Fleetwood Town. There is no clear form edge to exploit here; other signals need to take the lead.
Trading & In-Play
Notts County — key trading statistics (last 47 games, 23 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 87% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 75% of the time; BTTS occurs in 70% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 83% of games (home games); Over 3.5 in 49%.
Fleetwood Town — key trading statistics (last 47 games, 23 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 87% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 71% of the time; of the 12 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 33%; BTTS occurs in 61% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 56% of games (away games); they fail to score in 32% of games.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Notts County 68% versus Fleetwood Town 49%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Notts County 72% | Fleetwood Town 51%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Notts County 1.87 xG and Fleetwood Town 1.32 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: Notts County attack 1.109 / defence 1.158 | Fleetwood Town attack 0.850 / defence 1.150. League average goals — home 1.463 / away 1.339. Data: built from Notts County's last 47 games and Fleetwood Town's last 1. Some of those games are older results, so treat these probabilities as directional rather than precise.
Result probabilities: Notts County 50% | Draw 23% | Fleetwood Town 27%. Fair-value odds: Notts County 1.99 | Draw 4.43 | Fleetwood Town 3.69. Notts County hold a narrow Poisson edge at 50% — the draw (23%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 62% | BTTS Yes probability 62% | Total xG 3.18. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 62% — the 3.18 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 62% — both xG figures (1.87 / 1.32) are high enough that each side is projected to find the net.
Picks & Verdict
On the Poisson output, Notts County are the pick at 50% — moderate model lean. Draw probability of 23% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Notts County if the outright odds are short.
On the goals line, Poisson's 3.18 combined xG gives a 62% probability to Over 2.5 — reasonable conviction, supported by recent form (Notts County's last 10 home games and Fleetwood Town's last 10 away games) averaging 3.2 goals per game.
The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 62%. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Notts County 70% (last 10 home games) | Fleetwood Town 50% (last 10 away games).
The Poisson model's sample (Notts County 47 games, Fleetwood Town 1) includes some older results, so its projections carry extra uncertainty — weight recent form and the odds accordingly.

The Model vs The Result
