Fixture Analysis
It is a Serie B clash, Regular Season - 32 as Benevento welcome Pisa to Stadio Ciro Vigorito. Kick-off is set for Saturday 2 April 2022 at 15:15 UTC.
Recent Form
Across all Serie B games this season, Benevento have gone 4W 4D 2L from 10 outings — a 1.60 PPG return. Last five: W D W D L. They are averaging 1.40 goals per game and conceding 0.90 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 4 clean sheets in 10 games (40%) reflects a solid defensive base.
Benevento at Stadio Ciro Vigorito this season: 5W 2D 3L from 10 home games — 1.70 PPG on home soil. At home they are averaging 1.90 goals scored and 1.10 conceded per game.
Pisa — All Games: 5W 3D 2L from 10 Serie B fixtures this season — 1.80 PPG. Last five: W W W L W. Their scoring rate of 1.20 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 just 30% of their games, reflecting a regular tendency to keep or record clean sheets.
Pisa's form when playing away from home: 5W 2D 3L across 10 road games this term (1.70 PPG). Away from home they average 0.80 goals scored and 0.70 conceded per game. 5 away clean sheets from 10 games (50%) — they are as difficult to score against on the road as they are at home. Away from home, both teams have scored in only 20% of games — a low rate that backs BTTS No when they travel.
The form comparison is too close to call — 1.60 PPG (Benevento) versus 1.80 (Pisa). When the figures are this level, no pick can be reliably derived from recent results alone.
Head to Head
The rivalry is an even one: 0 wins apiece for Benevento, 1 for Pisa and 0 shared spoils from 1 past contests. Neither side holds a meaningful historical edge.
These sides have historically produced few goals — 1.0 per contest from 1 previous meetings. The Under 2.5 market has a well-supported historical case here. The most recent clash, on 21 Nov 2021, ended 0–1 with Pisa winning.
With a balanced win record and just 1.0 goals per game historically, the H2H points toward a tight, low-scoring contest. Under 2.5 goals has the strongest statistical grounding from the fixture history regardless of which side wins.
Trading Patterns
Benevento in-play and half-time data (30 games, 15 at home): they score before half-time in 60% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 62% of the time; BTTS occurs in 47% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 60% of games (home games); they fail to score in 30% of games.
Pisa in-play and half-time data (30 games, 15 at away): they score before half-time in 80% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 62% of the time; they lead at the break 47% of the time; BTTS occurs in 47% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 27% of games (away games); they keep a clean sheet 43% of the time.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Benevento 43% versus Pisa 47%; 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 (Benevento 37% | Pisa 30%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Benevento 1.36 xG and Pisa 0.85 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: Benevento attack 1.327 / defence 1.060 | Pisa attack 0.762 / defence 1.004. League average goals — home 1.023 / away 1.056. Benevento carry an above-average attack strength of 1.327 — their λ of 1.36 reflects genuine attacking quality above the league norm. Data: 30 Benevento games / 31 Pisa games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Benevento 46% | Draw 34% | Pisa 21%. Fair-value odds: Benevento 2.17 | Draw 2.94 | Pisa 4.76. Benevento hold a narrow Poisson edge at 46% — the draw (34%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 38% | BTTS probability 46% | Total xG 2.21. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 62% — total xG of 2.21 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 46% 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 Benevento at 46% — moderate model lean. With a 34% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Benevento offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.
The Poisson model projects 2.21 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 38% — Poisson-only — limited corroboration confidence.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 46% on No. Form rates corroborate: Benevento 50% | Pisa 20% BTTS from recent games.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Benevento beat Pisa 5-1 at Stadio Ciro Vigorito, Regular Season - 32, in the Serie B. 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 Benevento 1.36 xG and Pisa 0.85 xG, a combined 2.21. The scoreboard read 5-1 for 6 actual goals. Benevento beat their projection by 3.6 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Benevento attack 1.33 / defence 1.06 against Pisa attack 0.76 / defence 1.00, drawn from 30/31 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Benevento 46% | Draw 34% | Pisa 21%, with Benevento to win its most likely call at 46%. The result followed the model's preferred path, landing its top-rated outcome.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 38%. The game delivered 6, so it went over — against the model's lean. Over 1.5 had been 68% and landed. Over 3.5 was 18% and came in. On both teams to score, the model sat at 46% and the match saw both sides score — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 33% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Benevento 37%, Pisa 30%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 45%, which did not match the both-scored outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Benevento's trading profile (30 games, 15 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 43% of their matches — today it did; they keep a clean sheet 37% of the time, and conceded here.
Pisa's trading profile (30 games, 15 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 47% of their matches — today it did; they keep a clean sheet 43% of the time, and conceded here.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — Benevento 1.70 PPG, Pisa 1.83 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Benevento win broke the near-deadlock. Benevento (home/away splits) scored 5 against a 2.00 average — above their attacking norm. Pisa (home/away splits) shipped 5 against a 0.87 concession average — a leakier day than usual.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 1 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (hit), 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.
