Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Bayern München 4.20 xG and Eintracht Frankfurt 1.57 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: Bayern München attack 1.821 / defence 0.943 | Eintracht Frankfurt attack 1.197 / defence 1.360. League average goals — home 1.697 / away 1.388. Bayern München carry an above-average attack strength of 1.821 — their λ of 4.20 reflects genuine attacking quality above the league norm. Eintracht Frankfurt bring a strong defensive rating of 1.360 — this is suppressing Bayern München's projected output below what their attack strength alone would suggest. Data: 56 Bayern München games / 56 Eintracht Frankfurt games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Bayern München 81% | Draw 10% | Eintracht Frankfurt 8%. Fair-value odds: Bayern München 1.23 | Draw 10.00 | Eintracht Frankfurt 12.50. The model has a clear lean to Bayern München (81%) — a 73pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 93% | BTTS probability 78% | Total xG 5.77. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 93% — a total xG of 5.77 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 78% reflects that both xG figures (4.20 / 1.57) 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 Bayern München at 81% — clear model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support.

Poisson projects 5.77 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 93% probability — strong conviction, supported by form averaging 4.8 goals per game and H2H averaging 3.9 goals per meeting.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 78% on Yes. Form rates corroborate: Bayern München 70% | Eintracht Frankfurt 90% BTTS from recent games.
