Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Gwangju FC 1.45 xG and Jeju United FC 1.12 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: Gwangju FC attack 0.877 / defence 1.083 | Jeju United FC attack 0.844 / defence 1.097. League average goals — home 1.506 / away 1.227. Data: 66 Gwangju FC games / 66 Jeju United FC games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Gwangju FC 44% | Draw 28% | Jeju United FC 28%. Fair-value odds: Gwangju FC 2.27 | Draw 3.57 | Jeju United FC 3.57. 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 47% | BTTS probability 53% | Total xG 2.57. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 47%/53% — the total xG of 2.57 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 53% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Verdict

The Poisson model's primary lean is Gwangju FC at 44% — marginal model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw probability of 28% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Gwangju FC if the outright odds are short. The opposing side holds a 28% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

On the goals line, Poisson's 2.57 combined xG gives a 47% probability to Under 2.5 — reasonable, supported by H2H averaging 1.7 goals per meeting.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 53%. Form rates corroborate: Gwangju FC 60% | Jeju United FC 80% BTTS from recent games.
