Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Feyenoord 1.48 xG and PSV Eindhoven 2.68 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: Feyenoord attack 1.056 / defence 1.010 | PSV Eindhoven attack 1.414 / defence 0.835. League average goals — home 1.674 / away 1.880. PSV Eindhoven have an above-average attack strength of 1.414 — the away xG of 2.68 is driven by genuine attacking quality on the road. Data: 38 Feyenoord games / 38 PSV Eindhoven games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Feyenoord 19% | Draw 18% | PSV Eindhoven 63%. Fair-value odds: Feyenoord 5.26 | Draw 5.56 | PSV Eindhoven 1.59. The model has a clear lean to PSV Eindhoven (63%) — a 44pp gap over the next-most-likely outcome reflects a meaningful statistical advantage.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 78% | BTTS probability 72% | Total xG 4.16. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 78% — a total xG of 4.16 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 72% reflects that both xG figures (1.48 / 2.68) are above the threshold where scoring blanks become the primary outcome — both sides are projected to find the net.

Picks & Verdict

On the Poisson output, PSV Eindhoven are the pick at 63% — clear model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw No Bet is worth pricing alongside the outright: 18% draw probability makes the stalemate a live outcome even at this conviction level.

On the goals line, Poisson's 4.16 combined xG gives a 78% probability to Over 2.5 — strong, supported by form averaging 3.7 goals per game and H2H averaging 4.2 goals per meeting.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 72%. Form rates corroborate: Feyenoord 90% | PSV Eindhoven 90% BTTS from recent games.
