Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Kryvbas KR 1.09 xG and Vorskla Poltava 1.12 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: Kryvbas KR attack 0.698 / defence 0.906 | Vorskla Poltava attack 1.007 / defence 1.203. League average goals — home 1.298 / away 1.226. Kryvbas KR's attack strength of 0.698 is below the league average — the 1.09 xG projection reflects a team that scores at a discount to the division norm. Vorskla Poltava bring a strong defensive rating of 1.203 — this is suppressing Kryvbas KR's projected output below what their attack strength alone would suggest. Data: 10 Kryvbas KR games / 29 Vorskla Poltava games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Kryvbas KR 35% | Draw 29% | Vorskla Poltava 36%. Fair-value odds: Kryvbas KR 2.86 | Draw 3.45 | Vorskla Poltava 2.78. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome exceeds 45%. The draw at 29% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 38% | BTTS probability 45% | Total xG 2.21. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 62% — total xG of 2.21 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS probability of 45% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.

Final Verdict

Poisson rates Vorskla Poltava as the most likely outcome at 36% — marginal model lean. Current-season form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. Draw probability of 29% warrants consideration of Double Chance or Draw No Bet on Vorskla Poltava if the outright odds are short. The opposing side holds a 35% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

The Poisson model projects 2.21 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 38% — reasonable confidence, supported by form averaging 2.0 goals per game.

Poisson assigns a 45% probability to BTTS No based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates are neutral: Kryvbas KR 25% | Vorskla Poltava 80%.

The outsider holds a 35% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should not be treated as one. Proportionate stakes are appropriate given the genuine contest the data projects.
