What this tool calculates
Use expected goals for two football teams to estimate home-win, draw, away-win, over 2.5, and both-teams-to-score probabilities with a Poisson model.
P(k goals) = e^(−λ) × λ^k / k!. Score probabilities are the product of independent home and away Poisson probabilities.
Treat the result as a decision aid. Verify inputs, market rules, and settlement conditions before placing a bet.
Worked example
With home xG of 1.60 and away xG of 1.10, the model calculates a grid of score probabilities and sums it to estimate the 1X2 market.

Tips and limitations
- Use current prices and realistic assumptions.
- Compare several scenarios instead of relying on one point estimate.
- Rounding can create small differences from sportsbook displays.
- Never stake more than you can afford to lose.
