BTTS rates are mixed from the trading data — Slask Wroclaw 53% versus Pogon Szczecin 40%; no strong lean in either direction. The over/under 2.5 picture is inconclusive from the in-play data (Slask Wroclaw 47% | Pogon Szczecin 51%). There is an in-play dynamic worth noting: Slask Wroclaw surrender their half-time lead 37% of the time, while Pogon Szczecin have come from behind at the break to draw or win in 31% of cases — a combination that makes laying the hosts at HT a potential angle.

Poisson Model

The Poisson distribution model projects Slask Wroclaw 1.19 xG and Pogon Szczecin 1.66 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: Slask Wroclaw attack 0.972 / defence 1.121 | Pogon Szczecin attack 1.281 / defence 0.891. League average goals — home 1.379 / away 1.153. Pogon Szczecin have an above-average attack rating of 1.281, which lifts their away xG to 1.66. Data: built from Slask Wroclaw's last 57 games and Pogon Szczecin's last 57.

Result probabilities: Slask Wroclaw 28% | Draw 24% | Pogon Szczecin 48%. Fair-value odds: Slask Wroclaw 3.63 | Draw 4.12 | Pogon Szczecin 2.08. Pogon Szczecin hold a narrow Poisson edge at 48% — the draw (24%) is close enough to merit draw-inclusive market consideration.

Goals markets: Over 2.5 probability 54% | BTTS Yes probability 56% | Total xG 2.85. Over/Under 2.5 is close to a coin-flip at 54%/46% — the total xG of 2.85 sits near the 2.5 margin; this is a low-edge market from a Poisson standpoint. BTTS Yes at 56% is only a slight lean — 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 Pogon Szczecin at 48% — moderate model lean. Recent form corroborates the Poisson lean — partial multi-source support. With a 24% draw probability, Draw No Bet on Pogon Szczecin 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.

Poisson projects 2.85 total expected goals, pointing to Over 2.5 at 54% probability — reasonable conviction, supported by the H2H data averaging 3.0 goals per game across 7 H2H matches.

The Poisson model's BTTS call is Yes at 56%. Form rates are neutral — both teams scored in: Slask Wroclaw 60% (last 10 home games) | Pogon Szczecin 40% (last 10 away games).
