Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Górnik Łęczna 1.11 xG and Raków Częstochowa 2.41 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: Górnik Łęczna attack 0.781 / defence 1.619 | Raków Częstochowa attack 1.201 / defence 1.129. League average goals — home 1.254 / away 1.239. Górnik Łęczna's attack strength of 0.781 is below the league average — the 1.11 xG projection reflects a team that scores at a discount to the division norm. Raków Częstochowa have an above-average attack strength of 1.201 — the away xG of 2.41 is driven by genuine attacking quality on the road. Data: 12 Górnik Łęczna games / 11 Raków Częstochowa games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Górnik Łęczna 15% | Draw 19% | Raków Częstochowa 66%. Fair-value odds: Górnik Łęczna 6.67 | Draw 5.26 | Raków Częstochowa 1.52. The model has a clear lean to Raków Częstochowa (66%) — a 51pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 68% | BTTS probability 61% | Total xG 3.51. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 68% — a total xG of 3.51 means the expected score alone exceeds the 2.5 threshold, making the Over not just likely but structurally supported by both sides' attack/defence profiles. BTTS Yes at 61% reflects that both xG figures (1.11 / 2.41) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.

Verdict

The Poisson model's primary lean is Raków Częstochowa at 66% — clear model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 19% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.

On the goals line, Poisson's 3.51 combined xG gives a 68% probability to Over 2.5 — reasonable, supported by form averaging 3.5 goals per game.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 61%. Form rates corroborate: Górnik Łęczna 67% | Raków Częstochowa 71% BTTS from recent games.
