Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Raków Częstochowa 1.69 xG and Górnik Łęczna 0.67 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: Raków Częstochowa attack 1.184 / defence 0.935 | Górnik Łęczna attack 0.608 / defence 1.389. League average goals — home 1.030 / away 1.173. Górnik Łęczna bring a strong defensive rating of 1.389 — this is suppressing Raków Częstochowa's projected output below what their attack strength alone would suggest. Data: 30 Raków Częstochowa games / 30 Górnik Łęczna games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Raków Częstochowa 62% | Draw 24% | Górnik Łęczna 14%. Fair-value odds: Raków Częstochowa 1.61 | Draw 4.17 | Górnik Łęczna 7.14. The model has a clear lean to Raków Częstochowa (62%) — a 48pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 42% | BTTS probability 40% | Total xG 2.36. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 58% — total xG of 2.36 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 40% 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 Raków Częstochowa at 62% — clear model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 24% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.

On the goals line, Poisson's 2.36 combined xG gives a 42% probability to Under 2.5 — Poisson-only — limited corroboration.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is No at 40%. Form rates corroborate: Raków Częstochowa 40% | Górnik Łęczna 50% BTTS from recent games.
