Fixture Analysis
It is a Serie B clash, Regular Season - 35 as Ternana welcome Ascoli to Stadio Libero Liberati. Kick-off is set for Saturday 27 April 2024 at 13:00 UTC.
Recent Form
Across all Serie B games this season, Ternana have gone 4W 3D 3L from 10 outings — a 1.50 PPG return. Last five: W L D W D. They are averaging 1.00 goals per game and conceding 1.10 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 5 clean sheets from 10 games (50%) is a standout defensive return — they are keeping their net clean in more than half their matches.
In front of their own supporters this season, Ternana have posted 3W 5D 2L at Stadio Libero Liberati — 1.40 PPG. At home they are averaging 1.00 goals scored and 0.90 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their home matches — a rate that supports the Yes angle in this fixture.
Ascoli — All Games: 2W 6D 2L from 10 Serie B fixtures this season — 1.20 PPG. Last five: W L D D D. Their scoring rate of 0.80 per game is modest, conceding 0.60 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. Defensively, 0.60 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. 6 clean sheets from 10 games (60%) is an exceptional defensive record — they are keeping clean sheets more often than not.
Ascoli's away record: 2W 3D 5L from 10 road trips in Serie B this season (0.90 PPG). Away from home they average 1.00 goals scored and 1.30 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context.
The form comparison is too close to call — 1.50 PPG (Ternana) versus 1.20 (Ascoli). When the figures are this level, no pick can be reliably derived from recent results alone.
The BTTS market is worth targeting here. Ternana register both teams scoring in 60% of relevant matches, Ascoli in 60% (using home/away splits) — both sides above the 60% threshold gives BTTS Yes firm statistical grounding.
Head to Head
Despite the anticipated home advantage, Ascoli have the better historical record — 4 wins from 5 previous contests against 1 for Ternana.
The 5 previous encounters between these sides have been high-scoring affairs — 3.4 goals per contest on average. Historical precedent backs the Over 2.5 goals market. The most recent clash, on 26 Sep 2023, ended 0–2 with Ascoli winning.
The H2H provides genuine backing for the away side. Ascoli have won 4 of 5 previous encounters, and at 3.4 goals per game, the goals market also points upward. The away win and Over 2.5 combination has a historical case worth noting.
Trading Patterns
Ternana in-play and half-time data (72 games, 36 at home): they score before half-time in 69% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 52% of the time; BTTS occurs in 47% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 39% of games (home games); they fail to score in 32% of games.
Ascoli in-play and half-time data (72 games, 36 at away): they score before half-time in 67% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 67% of the time; BTTS occurs in 50% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 36% of games (away games); they fail to score in 35% of games.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Ternana 54% versus Ascoli 49%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Ternana 51% | Ascoli 38%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Ternana 0.95 xG and Ascoli 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: Ternana attack 0.787 / defence 0.853 | Ascoli attack 0.826 / defence 1.008. League average goals — home 1.197 / away 1.201. Ternana's attack strength of 0.787 is below the league average — the 0.95 xG projection reflects a team that scores at a discount to the division norm. Data: 72 Ternana games / 72 Ascoli games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Ternana 34% | Draw 38% | Ascoli 28%. Fair-value odds: Ternana 2.94 | Draw 2.63 | Ascoli 3.57. The draw (38%) is the Poisson-preferred outcome — neither side is more likely to win than to draw, making draw-inclusive markets the most model-aligned approach.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 27% | BTTS probability 38% | Total xG 1.80. Under 2.5 is the strongly backed market at 73% probability — total xG of 1.80 sits well below the 2.5 threshold. The model is projecting a tight, low-scoring match based on both sides' defensive quality. BTTS probability of 38% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Our Verdict
The Poisson model's preferred outcome is the draw at 38% — neither side is more likely to win than to draw. Draw-inclusive markets are the most model-aligned approach. Home win at 34% and away win at 28% are close enough that backing either outright carries significant draw exposure.
On the goals line, Poisson's 1.80 combined xG gives a 27% probability to Under 2.5 — marginal — conflicting signals, supported by form averaging 2.1 goals per game — though H2H averaging only 3.4 goals per meeting points in the other direction.
Poisson assigns a 38% probability to BTTS No based on the attack/defence strength model. This conflicts with form data: Ternana 60% | Ascoli 60% from recent games — a notable divergence.

How the Model Works This Match
Working from Ternana's attack rating (0.79) and Ascoli's defence rating (1.01), the model arrives at 0.95 expected goals for the home side. The same calculation in reverse, Ascoli's attack versus Ternana's defence, projects 0.85 expected goals for the visitors.
These ratings are built from 72/72 games of current-season data — a full enough sample to trust.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Ascoli beat Ternana 0-1 at Stadio Libero Liberati, Regular Season - 35, in the Serie B. That is the final score; the rest of this report grades it against what the data forecast beforehand.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Ternana 0.95 xG and Ascoli 0.85 xG, a combined 1.80. The scoreboard read 0-1 for 1 actual goal. Ternana fell 0.9 short of their projected output. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Ternana attack 0.79 / defence 0.85 against Ascoli attack 0.83 / defence 1.01, drawn from 72/72 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Ternana 34% | Draw 38% | Ascoli 28%, with the draw its most likely call at 38%. The actual Ascoli win had been the model's second-ranked read at 28%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 27%. The game delivered 1, so it stayed under — the model's lean was correct. Over 1.5 had been 56% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 38% and the match did not — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 44% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Ternana 51%, Ascoli 38%), a base rate that agreed with today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 51%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Ternana's trading profile (72 games, 36 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 54% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 32% of games, a blank that repeated today.
Ascoli's trading profile (72 games, 36 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 49% of their matches — today it did not.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — Ternana 1.11 PPG, Ascoli 1.12 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Ascoli win broke the near-deadlock. Ternana (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.00 scoring average — below par going forward. Ascoli (home/away splits) conceded 0 against a 1.36 average — tighter than their form line.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 2 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (hit). A mixed scorecard — the data caught the broad shape of the game but not every market.
