✍️ Match Preview
Analysis & Preview
A Ligue 2 encounter, Regular Season - 16 sees Guingamp travel to Stade Nouste Camp to take on PAU. The game is scheduled for Saturday 20 November 2021, 18:00 UTC.
Recent Form
Across all Ligue 2 games this season, PAU have gone 4W 2D 4L from 10 outings — a 1.40 PPG return. Last five: L W L W L. They are averaging 1.10 goals per game and conceding 1.30 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 3 clean sheets from 10 outings provides some defensive foundation. This season is still relatively young for PAU, so this record blends games from this season and last.
PAU's form when playing at home: 5W 1D 2L across 8 games at Stade Nouste Camp this term (2.00 PPG). At home they are averaging 1.25 goals scored and 0.62 conceded per game. 4 clean sheets from 8 home games (50%) — they are an exceptionally hard side to score against at Stade Nouste Camp. Their home PPG of 2.00 is noticeably stronger than their overall 1.40 — PAU are significantly better at Stade Nouste Camp than their overall form suggests.
Looking at all fixtures this season, Guingamp stand at 3W 3D 4L from 10 Ligue 2 matches — 1.20 PPG. Last five: W L W D L. They are scoring at 1.50 per game and conceding 1.60. 1 clean sheet from 10 outings suggests some defensive organisation. Both teams have scored in 80% of their matches this season — one of the stronger BTTS rates in the division, making Yes a well-evidenced play. This season is still relatively young for Guingamp, so this record blends games from this season and last.
Guingamp's form when playing away from home: 2W 4D 2L across 8 road games this term (1.25 PPG). Away from home they average 1.00 goals scored and 1.12 conceded per game. 3 clean sheets from 8 away games (38%) shows they are capable of shutting up shop on the road.
The form comparison is too close to call — 1.40 PPG (PAU) versus 1.20 (Guingamp). When the figures are this level, no pick can be reliably derived from recent results alone.
Trading Patterns
PAU in-play and half-time data (15 games, 8 at home): they score before half-time in 88% of fixtures in home games; BTTS occurs in 38% of their matches (home games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 25% of games (home games); they fail to score in 33% of games.
Guingamp in-play and half-time data (15 games, 8 at away): they score before half-time in 75% of fixtures in away games; when goalless at HT, a second-half goal follows 33% of the time; BTTS occurs in 50% of their matches (away games); Over 2.5 goals lands in 50% of games (away games).
BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — PAU 40% versus Guingamp 67%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (PAU 33% | Guingamp 53%).
Poisson Model
The Poisson distribution model projects PAU 1.10 xG and Guingamp 0.86 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: PAU attack 1.011 / defence 0.950 | Guingamp attack 0.910 / defence 1.214. League average goals — home 0.900 / away 0.997. Guingamp bring a strong defensive rating of 1.214 — this is suppressing PAU's projected output below what their attack strength alone would suggest. Data: 15 PAU games / 15 Guingamp games used (CurrentSeason).
Result probabilities: PAU 41% | Draw 31% | Guingamp 28%. Fair-value odds: PAU 2.44 | Draw 3.23 | Guingamp 3.57. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome exceeds 45%. The draw at 31% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.
Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 31% | BTTS probability 39% | Total xG 1.97. Under 2.5 is the strongly backed market at 69% probability — total xG of 1.97 sits well below the 2.5 threshold. The model is projecting a tight, low-scoring match based on both sides' defensive quality. BTTS probability of 39% is moderate — neither team is projected to score with enough certainty to make Yes a clear standalone call.
Summary & Verdict
The Poisson model's primary lean is PAU at 41% — marginal model lean. With a 31% draw probability, Draw No Bet on PAU offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win. The opposing side holds a 28% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.
The Poisson model projects 1.97 xG in total — Under 2.5 at 31% — reasonable confidence, supported by form averaging 2.0 goals per game.
On the BTTS market, Poisson puts 39% on No. Form rates corroborate: PAU 38% | Guingamp 50% BTTS from recent games.

📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
PAU beat Guingamp 2-0 at Stade Nouste Camp, Regular Season - 16, in the Ligue 2. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting PAU 1.10 xG and Guingamp 0.86 xG, a combined 1.97. The scoreboard read 2-0 for 2 actual goals. PAU beat their projection by 0.9 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in. Guingamp landed 0.9 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of PAU attack 1.01 / defence 0.95 against Guingamp attack 0.91 / defence 1.21, drawn from 15/15 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it PAU 41% | Draw 31% | Guingamp 28%, with PAU to win its most likely call at 41%. That is exactly how it finished — the model's leading outcome was vindicated.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 31%. The game delivered 2, so it stayed under — a call the model got right. Over 1.5 had been 58% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 39% and the match did not — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 43% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (PAU 33%, Guingamp 53%), a base rate that agreed with today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 53%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
PAU's trading profile (15 games, 8 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 40% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 33% of the time, and duly kept one.
Guingamp's trading profile (15 games, 8 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 67% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 27% of games, a blank that repeated today.
Form vs Result
The form lines were close — PAU 1.40 PPG, Guingamp 1.20 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the PAU win broke the near-deadlock. Guingamp (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.00 scoring average — below par going forward and shipped 2 against a 1.12 concession average — a leakier day than usual.
Verdict
Grading the result against the stored data, 3 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (hit), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (hit). The numbers read this fixture well — the outcome largely followed the script the data laid out beforehand.
