Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects 1. FC Kaiserslautern 2.26 xG and Eintracht Braunschweig 0.97 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: 1. FC Kaiserslautern attack 1.220 / defence 0.908 | Eintracht Braunschweig attack 0.837 / defence 1.162. League average goals — home 1.598 / away 1.276. Data: built from 1. FC Kaiserslautern's last 64 games and Eintracht Braunschweig's last 64.

Result probabilities: 1. FC Kaiserslautern 65% | Draw 22% | Eintracht Braunschweig 13%. Fair-value odds: 1. FC Kaiserslautern 1.54 | Draw 4.61 | Eintracht Braunschweig 7.54. The model has a clear lean to 1. FC Kaiserslautern (65%) — a 43pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 63% | BTTS Yes probability 57% | Total xG 3.23. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 63% — the 3.23 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 57% is only a slight lean — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Our Verdict

Poisson rates 1. FC Kaiserslautern as the most likely outcome at 65% — clear model lean. Recent form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 22% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.

Poisson projects 3.23 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 63% probability — strong conviction, supported by recent form (1. FC Kaiserslautern's last 10 home games and Eintracht Braunschweig's last 10 away games) averaging 3.1 goals per game and the H2H data averaging 2.9 goals per game across 7 H2H matches.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 57%. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: 1. FC Kaiserslautern 60% (last 10 home games) | Eintracht Braunschweig 70% (last 10 away games).
