Match Analysis

Kryvbas KR host Polessya at Stadion Shakhty Zhovtneva in Premier League (matchday 28). Kick-off is Monday 13 May 2024 at 17:00 UK time.

Form Guide

Kryvbas KR — last 10 games: 6W 2D 2L, averaging 2.00 points per game. Last five: D D W W L. Offensively they are averaging 1.60 goals per game, with 0.90 conceded. 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, Kryvbas KR have posted 6W 2D 2L from their last 10 home games — 2.00 PPG. At home they are averaging 1.50 goals scored and 0.90 conceded per game. 5 clean sheets from their last 10 home games (50%) — they are an exceptionally hard side to score against at home.

Looking at their last 10 matches, Polessya stand at 3W 2D 5L — 1.10 PPG. Last five: W W L W D. Their scoring rate of 0.90 per game is modest, conceding 1.50 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings (20%).

Polessya's away record over their last 10 away games: 4W 3D 3L (1.50 PPG). Away from home they average 1.10 goals scored and 0.80 conceded per game. 5 away clean sheets from their last 10 away games (50%) — they are hard to break down on the road. Away from home, both teams have scored in only 20% of games — a low rate that backs BTTS No when they travel.

On current form, Kryvbas KR have the edge — a 0.90 PPG advantage (2.00 vs 1.10) represents a meaningful gap. That momentum makes them the form-based pick, though if the outright price looks short, Draw No Bet is worth comparing.

H2H Record

There is little to separate the sides in our head-to-head data. From 1 H2H match, Kryvbas KR have won 0, Polessya 0, with 1 draw — a balanced record that offers no clear steer on its own. With only 1 H2H match to go on, treat this as a light input.

The 1 H2H match in our data averaged 2.0 goals per game — a neutral rate that gives no strong lean on the goals market from the H2H alone. The most recent of those, on 6 Nov 2023, ended Kryvbas KR 1–1 Polessya — a draw.

The head-to-head data offers no strong steer in either the result or goals markets. Form, the model and current market pricing should carry more weight for this fixture.

Trading Patterns

Kryvbas KR in-play and half-time data (last 27 games, 13 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 77% of their matches in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 86% of the time; of the 11 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 36%; of the 6 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 50%; BTTS occurs in 46% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 54% of games (home games); they keep a clean sheet 41% of the time.

Polessya in-play and half-time data (last 27 games, 13 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 62% of their matches in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 85% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 54% of those occasions; of the 7 games they trailed at half-time, they recovered to draw or win 43%; BTTS occurs in 31% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 46% of games (away games).

BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Kryvbas KR 48% versus Polessya 48%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Kryvbas KR 52% | Polessya 41%). There is an in-play dynamic worth noting: Kryvbas KR surrender their half-time lead 36% of the time, while Polessya have come from behind at the break to draw or win in 43% of cases — a combination that makes laying the hosts at HT a potential angle.

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Kryvbas KR 1.54 xG and Polessya 0.88 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: Kryvbas KR attack 1.105 / defence 0.822 | Polessya attack 0.904 / defence 1.127. League average goals — home 1.236 / away 1.189. Data: built from Kryvbas KR's last 57 games and Polessya's last 27.

Result probabilities: Kryvbas KR 53% | Draw 26% | Polessya 22%. Fair-value odds: Kryvbas KR 1.90 | Draw 3.89 | Polessya 4.63. Kryvbas KR hold a narrow Poisson edge at 53% — the draw (26%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 44% | BTTS Yes probability 46% | Total xG 2.42. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 56% — total xG of 2.42 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS No at 54% is only a slight lean — the model gives both sides a fair chance of scoring, so No isn't a clear standalone call.

Summary & Verdict

The Poisson model's primary lean is Kryvbas KR at 53% — moderate model lean. Recent form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. With a 26% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Kryvbas KR offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win.

The Poisson model projects 2.42 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 56% — reasonable conviction, supported by recent form (Kryvbas KR's last 10 home games and Polessya's last 10 away games) averaging 2.1 goals per game.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 54% on No. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: Kryvbas KR 40% (last 10 home games) | Polessya 20% (last 10 away games).
