✍️ Match Preview
Analysis & Preview
A Eredivisie encounter, Relegation Round sees De Graafschap travel to Jan Louwers Stadion to take on FC Eindhoven. The game is scheduled for Friday 13 May 2022, 19:00 UTC.
Recent Form
Across all Eredivisie games this season, FC Eindhoven have gone 0W 1D 0L from 1 outings — a 1.00 PPG return. Last five: D. They are averaging 1.00 goals per game and conceding 1.00 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. Both teams have scored in 100% of their matches — an extremely high rate that makes BTTS Yes a well-supported standalone angle from their form alone. FC Eindhoven have played only a handful of Eredivisie games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.
Looking at all fixtures this season, De Graafschap stand at 0W 1D 0L from 1 Eredivisie matches — 1.00 PPG. Last five: D. Their scoring rate of 1.00 per game is modest, conceding 1.00 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. Both teams have scored in 100% of their matches this season — one of the stronger BTTS rates in the division, making Yes a well-evidenced play. De Graafschap have played only a handful of Eredivisie games so far this season, so this record also draws on matches from last season.
The form figures are too closely matched to derive a directional pick: FC Eindhoven 1.00 PPG, De Graafschap 1.00 PPG. Look to other data sets to build the analysis.
Both teams score in over 100% of each side's relevant games (using overall form). At that combined rate, BTTS Yes is as well-evidenced as it gets — the data strongly backs two-way scoring.
H2H
The H2H landscape is flat: 1 previous encounters have yielded 0 wins for FC Eindhoven, 0 for De Graafschap and 1 draws. A neutral reading in isolation.
The 1 previous meetings have averaged 2.0 goals per game — a neutral rate that provides no strong lean on the goals market from the H2H alone. The most recent clash, on 9 May 2022, ended 1–1 with a draw.
The head-to-head offers no strong directional steer in either the result or goals markets. Form, the predictive model and current market pricing should carry more weight than the historical record for this fixture.
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects FC Eindhoven 1.14 xG and De Graafschap 1.23 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: FC Eindhoven attack 0.850 / defence 1.150 | De Graafschap attack 0.850 / defence 1.150. League average goals — home 1.167 / away 1.253. Data: 0 FC Eindhoven games / 0 De Graafschap games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: FC Eindhoven 34% | Draw 28% | De Graafschap 38%. Fair-value odds: FC Eindhoven 2.94 | Draw 3.57 | De Graafschap 2.63. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome exceeds 45%. The draw at 28% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 42% | BTTS probability 48% | Total xG 2.37. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 58% — total xG of 2.37 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 48% 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 De Graafschap at 38% — marginal model lean. With a 28% draw probability, Draw No Bet on De Graafschap offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win. The opposing side holds a 34% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.
On the goals line, Poisson's 2.37 combined xG gives a 42% probability to Under 2.5 — reasonable, supported by form averaging 2.0 goals per game.
The outsider holds a 34% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should not be treated as one. Proportionate stakes are appropriate given the genuine contest the data projects.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
FC Eindhoven beat De Graafschap 3-1 at Jan Louwers Stadion, Relegation Round, in the Eredivisie. 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 FC Eindhoven 1.14 xG and De Graafschap 1.23 xG, a combined 2.37. The scoreboard read 3-1 for 4 actual goals. FC Eindhoven beat their projection by 1.9 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in. Those figures were built on strength ratings of FC Eindhoven attack 0.85 / defence 1.15 against De Graafschap attack 0.85 / defence 1.15, drawn from 0/0 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it FC Eindhoven 34% | Draw 28% | De Graafschap 38%, with De Graafschap to win its most likely call at 38%. The actual FC Eindhoven win had been the model's second-ranked read at 34%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 42%. The game delivered 4, so it went over — the opposite of the projected direction. Over 1.5 had been 68% and landed. Over 3.5 was 21% and came in. On both teams to score, the model sat at 48% and the match saw both sides score — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 0% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (FC Eindhoven 0%, De Graafschap 0%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 100%, which matched the both-scored outcome.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — FC Eindhoven 1.00 PPG, De Graafschap 1.00 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the FC Eindhoven win broke the near-deadlock. FC Eindhoven scored 3 against a 1.00 average — above their attacking norm. De Graafschap shipped 3 against a 1.00 concession average — a leakier day than usual.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 0 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss). The data was on the wrong side of this result more often than not — a reminder that a single match sits well inside the model's variance.
