Full Analysis
Stade Michel d'Ornano plays host to Caen versus Annecy in Ligue 2, Regular Season - 15. Kick-off: Saturday 12 November 2022 at 18:00 UTC.
Form & Momentum
Caen have collected 1.20 PPG across 10 Ligue 2 outings this season: 3W 3D 4L. Last five: L W L W D. They are averaging 1.00 goals per game and conceding 1.20 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. This season is still relatively young for Caen, so this record blends games from this season and last.
In front of their own supporters this season, Caen have posted 6W 3D 1L at Stade Michel d'Ornano — 2.10 PPG. At home they are averaging 1.60 goals scored and 0.60 conceded per game. 4 home clean sheets from 10 games (40%) — a solid defensive base on their own ground. Their home PPG of 2.10 is noticeably stronger than their overall 1.20 — Caen are significantly better at Stade Michel d'Ornano than their overall form suggests.
Annecy (all games): 4W 2D 4L across 10 Ligue 2 outings this term — 1.40 points per game. Last five: L W L L W. Their scoring rate of 0.90 per game is modest, conceding 0.80 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. Defensively, 0.80 goals conceded per game is elite-level — a side this difficult to score against is a real threat to Over 2.5 and BTTS Yes. 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 only 10% of their fixtures — a very low rate that strongly backs BTTS No. This season is still relatively young for Annecy, so this record blends games from this season and last.
Annecy's away record: 2W 2D 3L from 7 road trips in Ligue 2 this season (1.14 PPG). Away from home they average 1.14 goals scored and 0.86 conceded per game. 3 clean sheets from 7 away games (43%) shows they are capable of shutting up shop on the road. Away from home, both teams have scored in only 14% of games — a low rate that backs BTTS No when they travel.
Both sides are running at similar form levels — 1.20 PPG for Caen against 1.40 for Annecy. There is no clear form edge to exploit here; other signals need to take the lead.
Trading
Caen half-time and goal-timing data (14 games, 7 at home): they score before half-time in 71% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 100% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 60% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 43% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 29% of games (home games).
Annecy half-time and goal-timing data (14 games, 7 at away): they score before half-time in 57% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 60% of the time; BTTS occurs in 14% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 29% of games (away games); they fail to score in 57% of games.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Caen 50% versus Annecy 21%; 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 (Caen 36% | Annecy 29%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Caen 1.30 xG and Annecy 0.83 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: Caen attack 1.171 / defence 0.798 | Annecy attack 0.992 / defence 0.939. League average goals — home 1.179 / away 1.051. Caen's defence rating of 0.798 is below average — the home backline is amplifying the visitor's projected output. Data: 52 Caen games / 14 Annecy games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Caen 47% | Draw 29% | Annecy 24%. Fair-value odds: Caen 2.13 | Draw 3.45 | Annecy 4.17. Caen 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 36% | BTTS probability 41% | Total xG 2.13. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 64% — total xG of 2.13 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 41% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Picks & Verdict
On the Poisson output, Caen are the pick at 47% — moderate model lean. Draw probability of 29% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Caen if the outright odds are short.
Poisson projects 2.13 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 36% probability — reasonable conviction, supported by form averaging 2.1 goals per game.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 41% on No. Form rates corroborate: Caen 50% | Annecy 14% BTTS from recent games.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Caen and Annecy finished level at 0-0 at Stade Michel d'Ornano, Regular Season - 15, in the Ligue 2. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Caen 1.30 xG and Annecy 0.83 xG, a combined 2.13. The scoreboard read 0-0 for 0 actual goals. Caen fell 1.3 short of their projected output. Annecy landed 0.8 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Caen attack 1.17 / defence 0.80 against Annecy attack 0.99 / defence 0.94, drawn from 52/14 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Caen 47% | Draw 29% | Annecy 24%, with Caen to win its most likely call at 47%. The actual draw had been the model's second-ranked read at 29%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 36%. The game delivered 0, so it stayed under — a call the model got right. Over 1.5 had been 63% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 41% and the match did not — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 32% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Caen 36%, Annecy 29%), a base rate that agreed with today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 36%, which matched the one-sided outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Caen's trading profile (14 games, 7 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 50% of their matches — today it did not.
Annecy's trading profile (14 games, 7 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 21% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 36% of the time, and duly kept one; they fail to score in 57% of games, a blank that repeated today.
Form vs Result
On form, Caen arrived the stronger side — 1.57 PPG against 1.07. The form guide was only half-right: the stronger side did not lose, but could not convert the edge into a win. Caen (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.71 scoring average — below par going forward. Annecy (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.14 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 0.86 average — tighter than their form line.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 2 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (hit), form (miss). The model got the gist right while missing on the margins.
