Trading & In-Play

D. Melipilla — key trading statistics (27 games, 13 at home): they score before half-time in 77% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 100% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 80% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 69% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 46% of games (home games).

BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — D. Melipilla 59% versus Cobresal 59%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (D. Melipilla 52% | Cobresal 52%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects D. Melipilla 1.35 xG and Cobresal 1.14 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: D. Melipilla attack 1.035 / defence 1.193 | Cobresal attack 0.722 / defence 1.229. League average goals — home 1.065 / away 1.324. Cobresal bring a strong defensive rating of 1.229 — this is suppressing D. Melipilla's projected output below what their attack strength alone would suggest. Data: 28 D. Melipilla games / 27 Cobresal games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: D. Melipilla 41% | Draw 28% | Cobresal 31%. Fair-value odds: D. Melipilla 2.44 | Draw 3.57 | Cobresal 3.23. 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 46% | BTTS probability 51% | Total xG 2.50. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 46%/54% — the total xG of 2.50 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 51% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Picks & Verdict

On the Poisson output, D. Melipilla are the pick at 41% — marginal model lean. Draw probability of 28% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on D. Melipilla if the outright odds are short. The opposing side holds a 31% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

On the goals line, Poisson's 2.50 combined xG gives a 46% probability to Under 2.5 — Poisson-only — limited corroboration.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 51%. Form rates corroborate: D. Melipilla 80% | Cobresal 50% BTTS from recent games.

The outsider holds a 31% 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.
