✍️ Match Preview
Pre-Match Analysis
Guingamp and Dunkerque meet at Stade du Roudourou in Ligue 2, Regular Season - 19. This fixture gets under way on Tuesday 21 December 2021 at 19:45 UTC.
Form
Guingamp (all games): 3W 2D 5L across 10 Ligue 2 fixtures this term — 1.10 PPG. Last five: D L L W L. Offensively they are averaging 1.60 goals per game, with 1.90 conceded. Both teams have scored in 80% of their matches — an extremely high rate that makes BTTS Yes a well-supported standalone angle from their form alone. This season is still relatively young for Guingamp, so this record blends games from this season and last.
Guingamp's home record at Stade du Roudourou: 3W 2D 3L from 8 Ligue 2 appearances (1.38 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.62 goals scored and 1.62 conceded per game. Both teams have scored in 88% of their home games — an outstanding BTTS rate that is a key data point for this fixture.
Dunkerque have collected 1.30 PPG across 10 Ligue 2 outings this season: 4W 1D 5L. Last five: W L L L L. Their scoring rate of 0.90 per game is modest, conceding 1.20 — not a side to back heavily on the Over 2.5 from their form alone. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Both teams have scored in just 30% of their games, reflecting a regular tendency to keep or record clean sheets. This season is still relatively young for Dunkerque, so this record blends games from this season and last.
Dunkerque away from home this season: 2W 1D 5L from 8 away games — 0.88 PPG on the road. Away from home they average 1.00 goals scored and 1.62 conceded per game.
Neither side holds a meaningful form edge. The 1.10 vs 1.30 PPG split is negligible — model and market signals should carry more analytical weight for this one.
Trading & In-Play
Guingamp — key trading statistics (18 games, 8 at home): they score before half-time in 88% of fixtures in home games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 33% of the time; BTTS occurs in 88% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 62% of games (home games); they fail to score in 33% of games.
Dunkerque — key trading statistics (18 games, 8 at away): they score before half-time in 75% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 89% of the time; two or more arrive in the second half on 56% of those occasions; BTTS occurs in 50% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 62% of games (away games); they fail to score in 50% of games.
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Guingamp 61% versus Dunkerque 39%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Guingamp 50% | Dunkerque 33%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects Guingamp 1.74 xG and Dunkerque 1.25 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: Guingamp attack 1.292 / defence 1.497 | Dunkerque attack 0.801 / defence 1.387. League average goals — home 0.972 / away 1.038. Guingamp carry an above-average attack strength of 1.292 — their λ of 1.74 reflects genuine attacking quality above the league norm. Dunkerque bring a strong defensive rating of 1.387 — this is suppressing Guingamp's projected output below what their attack strength alone would suggest. Data: 18 Guingamp games / 18 Dunkerque games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: Guingamp 49% | Draw 24% | Dunkerque 27%. Fair-value odds: Guingamp 2.04 | Draw 4.17 | Dunkerque 3.70. Guingamp hold a narrow Poisson edge at 49% — the draw (24%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 57% | BTTS probability 59% | Total xG 2.99. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 57% — the 2.99 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS probability of 59% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Picks & Verdict
On the Poisson output, Guingamp are the pick at 49% — moderate model lean. Draw probability of 24% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Guingamp if the outright odds are short.
Poisson projects 2.99 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 57% probability — reasonable conviction, supported by form averaging 2.9 goals per game.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 59% on Yes. Form rates corroborate: Guingamp 88% | Dunkerque 50% BTTS from recent games.

The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Guingamp 1.74 xG and Dunkerque 1.25 xG, a combined 2.99. The scoreboard read 2-1 for 3 actual goals. Both sides finished within a goal of their individual projections, so the scoreline sat close to the model's expected shape.
