Recent Form

Across their last 7 games, Puszcza Niepołomice have gone 2W 1D 4L — a 1.00 PPG return. Last five: W D L W L. They are averaging 1.00 goals per game and conceding 1.71 — a modest attacking output that tempers optimism on the Over 2.5 market. 1 clean sheet from 7 outings (14%).

Puszcza Niepołomice at home: 2W 1D 0L from their last 3 home games — 2.33 PPG on home soil. At home they are averaging 1.33 goals scored and 0.67 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 67% of their home matches — a rate that supports the Yes angle in this fixture. Their home PPG of 2.33 is noticeably stronger than their overall 1.00 — Puszcza Niepołomice are significantly better at home than their overall form suggests.

Slask Wroclaw — last 10 games: 6W 1D 3L — 1.90 PPG. Last five: L W W W W. Their attacking form is sharp — 2.00 goals per game is a high-output rate that commands respect in the goals markets. 2 clean sheets from 10 outings (20%). Both teams have scored in 80% of their matches — a high rate that makes Yes a well-evidenced angle from their form.

When travelling, Slask Wroclaw have posted 2W 3D 5L from their last 10 away outings — 0.90 PPG. Away from home they average 1.00 goals scored and 1.70 conceded per game. BTTS has landed in 60% of their away games — meaningful support for the Yes angle in this specific context. Their away PPG of 0.90 is notably below their overall 1.90 — form away from home has been a clear weakness recently.

The form data does not support a straightforward home bias here. Slask Wroclaw are 0.90 PPG ahead (1.90 vs 1.00), making them the form-guided selection despite the trip.

The BTTS market is worth targeting here. Both teams have scored in 67% of Puszcza Niepołomice's games and 60% of Slask Wroclaw's (from Puszcza Niepołomice's last 3 home games and Slask Wroclaw's last 10 away games) — both sides above the 60% threshold gives BTTS Yes firm statistical grounding.

In-Play Profile

Puszcza Niepołomice in-play tendencies (last 7 games, 3 of them at home): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 71% of their matches; BTTS occurs in 57% of their matches; Over 2.5 goals lands in 43% of games.

Slask Wroclaw in-play tendencies (last 7 games, 3 of them away): at least one goal arrives before half-time in 71% of their matches; they lead at the break 57% of the time; of the 4 games they led at half-time, they failed to win 25%; BTTS occurs in 71% of their matches; Over 2.5 goals lands in 57% of games.

From a combined perspective, both sides have high BTTS rates — Puszcza Niepołomice 57% and Slask Wroclaw 71% — which reinforces the BTTS Yes angle from in-play data. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Puszcza Niepołomice 43% | Slask Wroclaw 57%).

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Puszcza Niepołomice 1.10 xG and Slask Wroclaw 1.15 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: Puszcza Niepołomice attack 0.886 / defence 1.097 | Slask Wroclaw attack 1.163 / defence 0.922. League average goals — home 1.345 / away 0.901. Data: built from Puszcza Niepołomice's last 7 games and Slask Wroclaw's last 41.

Result probabilities: Puszcza Niepołomice 33% | Draw 32% | Slask Wroclaw 35%. Fair-value odds: Puszcza Niepołomice 3.06 | Draw 3.10 | Slask Wroclaw 2.85. This is a low-confidence result — no outcome reaches 45%. The draw at 32% is a primary outcome, not an afterthought.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 39% | BTTS Yes probability 47% | Total xG 2.25. Under 2.5 has a narrow probability edge at 61% — total xG of 2.25 is below the line but not decisively so. BTTS No at 53% is only a slight lean — the model gives both sides a fair chance of scoring, so No isn't a clear standalone call.

Summary & Verdict

The Poisson model's primary lean is Slask Wroclaw at 35% — marginal model lean. Recent form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. With a 32% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Slask Wroclaw offers a more defensible entry point than the straight win. The opposing side holds a 33% win probability per the model — this is not a banker and should be staked accordingly.

On the goals line, Poisson's 2.25 combined xG gives a 61% probability to Under 2.5 — a Poisson-only call with no corroboration from form or H2H.

Poisson assigns a 53% probability to BTTS No based on the attack/defence strength model. This conflicts with form data — both teams scored in: Puszcza Niepołomice 67% (last 3 home games) | Slask Wroclaw 60% (last 10 away games), a notable divergence.
