Akron vs Krylia Sovetov: Under 2.5 goals
Akron and Krylia Sovetov arrive with identical expected‑goal figures of 0.5, yet the model forecasts a 92% chance of under 2.5 goals. Both sides have struggled to find the net in recent outings, making a low‑scoring affair the most probable outcome.
The Russian Premier League clash pits two sides that have barely scored in recent weeks. Akron’s home defence concedes 3.5 goals per game, while Krylia Sovetov’s away defence has been unusually stingy, allowing just 0.5 goals on the road.
Lars's Verdict
The model assigns a 92% probability to the under‑2.5‑goals market, reflecting the teams’ muted attacking output and the prevalence of low‑scoring results in their recent games.
Show the maths
With Akron averaging 0.5 expected goals and Krylia Sovetov averaging 0.5, the model gives a 84.5% chance at least one side fails to score, ahead of the 15.5% it gives to both teams scoring.
Show the maths
Combined expected goals of 1.0 (Akron 0.5 + Krylia Sovetov 0.5) points to a tighter game, with the model giving Under 2.5 Goals a 92.0% chance against 8.0% for Over.
Show the maths
Our Poisson model, built from each side's real season scoring and conceding rates, has Akron at 26.7%, the draw at 46.6%, and Krylia Sovetov at 26.7% to win.
The single most likely scoreline in our model is 0-0 at 36.8% — treat any single scoreline price with caution given how spread out the probability distribution is across a low-scoring match.
