Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects BK Hacken 1.74 xG and Vasteras SK FK 1.43 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: BK Hacken attack 1.255 / defence 1.330 | Vasteras SK FK attack 0.797 / defence 0.829. League average goals — home 1.674 / away 1.348. BK Hacken carry an above-average attack rating of 1.255 — their 1.74 xG reflects attacking quality above the league norm. Vasteras SK FK's attack rating of 0.797 is below the league average, which holds their xG down at 1.43. BK Hacken's defence rating of 1.330 (above 1 = concedes more than average) is pushing Vasteras SK FK's projected output up. Data: built from BK Hacken's last 46 games and Vasteras SK FK's last 15.

Result probabilities: BK Hacken 45% | Draw 23% | Vasteras SK FK 32%. Fair-value odds: BK Hacken 2.22 | Draw 4.30 | Vasteras SK FK 3.16. BK Hacken hold a narrow Poisson edge at 45% — the draw (23%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 61% | BTTS Yes probability 63% | Total xG 3.17. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 61% — the 3.17 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS Yes at 63% — both xG figures (1.74 / 1.43) are high enough that each side is projected to find the net.

Verdict

The Poisson model's primary lean is BK Hacken at 45% — moderate model lean. Draw probability of 23% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on BK Hacken if the outright odds are short. The opposing side holds a 32% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

On the goals line, Poisson's 3.17 combined xG gives a 61% probability to Over 2.5 — reasonable conviction, supported by recent form (BK Hacken's last 10 home games and Vasteras SK FK's last 10 away games) averaging 3.2 goals per game.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 63%. Form rates corroborate — both teams scored in: BK Hacken 90% (last 10 home games) | Vasteras SK FK 30% (last 10 away games).
