Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects SC Paderborn 07 0.95 xG and Bayern München 1.65 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: SC Paderborn 07 attack 0.662 / defence 0.954 | Bayern München attack 1.254 / defence 0.758. League average goals — home 1.897 / away 1.375. SC Paderborn 07's attack strength of 0.662 is below the league average — the 0.95 xG projection reflects a team that scores at a discount to the division norm. Bayern München's defence strength of 0.758 is below average — they are conceding at a rate that inflates the home xG figure. Bayern München have an above-average attack strength of 1.254 — the away xG of 1.65 is driven by genuine attacking quality on the road. Data: 8 SC Paderborn 07 games / 42 Bayern München games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: SC Paderborn 07 21% | Draw 26% | Bayern München 53%. Fair-value odds: SC Paderborn 07 4.76 | Draw 3.85 | Bayern München 1.89. Bayern München hold a narrow Poisson edge at 53% — the draw (26%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 48% | BTTS probability 50% | Total xG 2.60. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 48%/52% — the total xG of 2.60 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS probability of 50% 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 Bayern München at 53% — moderate model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw probability of 26% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Bayern München if the outright odds are short.

Poisson projects 2.60 total expected goals, pointing to Under 2.5 at 48% probability — Poisson-only — limited corroboration conviction — though form averaging only 3.4 goals per game points in the other direction.

On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 50% on Yes. Form rates corroborate: SC Paderborn 07 70% | Bayern München 70% BTTS from recent games.
