Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Vasteras SK FK 1.23 xG and Norrby IF 1.72 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: Vasteras SK FK attack 0.924 / defence 1.566 | Norrby IF attack 1.001 / defence 1.208. League average goals — home 1.099 / away 1.096.

Data: 19 Vasteras SK FK games / 19 Norrby IF games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Vasteras SK FK 27% | Draw 24% | Norrby IF 49%. Fair-value odds: Vasteras SK FK 3.70 | Draw 4.17 | Norrby IF 2.04. Norrby IF 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 56% | BTTS probability 58% | Total xG 2.94. Over 2.5 holds a meaningful probability edge at 56% — the 2.94 total xG provides moderate support, though the model is not projecting a high-scoring game. BTTS probability of 58% 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 Norrby IF at 49% — moderate model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw probability of 24% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Norrby IF if the outright odds are short.

On the goals line, Poisson's 2.94 combined xG gives a 56% probability to Over 2.5 — Poisson-only — limited corroboration.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 58%. Form rates corroborate: Vasteras SK FK 60% | Norrby IF 50% BTTS from recent games.
