Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Ajman 2.80 xG and Dubai United 2.14 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: Ajman attack 1.173 / defence 1.242 | Dubai United attack 1.066 / defence 1.579. League average goals — home 1.511 / away 1.616. Dubai United bring a strong defensive rating of 1.579 — this is suppressing Ajman's projected output below what their attack strength alone would suggest. Data: 31 Ajman games / 5 Dubai United games used (CurrentSeason).

Result probabilities: Ajman 52% | Draw 18% | Dubai United 30%. Fair-value odds: Ajman 1.92 | Draw 5.56 | Dubai United 3.33. Ajman hold a narrow Poisson edge at 52% — the draw (18%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 87% | BTTS probability 83% | Total xG 4.94. Over 2.5 is the model's clear signal at 87% — a total xG of 4.94 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 83% reflects that both xG figures (2.80 / 2.14) 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, Ajman are the pick at 52% — moderate model lean. The opposing side holds a 30% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

The Poisson model projects 4.94 xG in total — Over 2.5 at 87% — reasonable confidence, supported by form averaging 4.7 goals per game.

Poisson assigns a 83% probability to BTTS Yes based on the attack/defence strength model. Form rates corroborate: Ajman 80% | Dubai United 100% BTTS from recent games.
