57.7% model probability

Both clubs arrive in the FA Cup fourth round after mixed recent runs – Barton Town Old Boys have slipped and recovered in their last five, while Boldmere St. Michaels have only two results to show but both were unbeaten.

Robbo's Verdict

Solid

Both teams to score - Yes Won Solid lean Solid · BTTS likelihood

The BTTS probability sits at 54.6%, driven by Barton’s 2.0 xG home strength and Boldmere’s 1.0 xG away record, making a dual‑goal outcome more likely than not.

Show the maths

The model assigns Barton a 2.0 expected‑goals figure at home versus Boldmere’s 1.0 away, creating a combined xG of 3.0 for the fixture. That total pushes the over‑2.5 goal probability to 57.7%, meaning goals are expected on both ends. The BTTS Yes probability of 54.6% directly follows from this combined xG, as each side’s individual xG exceeds the 0.5 threshold needed for a goal. Hence the model rates both teams scoring as the most probable specific outcome.

Pick 2 · Both Teams to Score

Both Teams to Score — Yes Won 54.6% model probability

With Barton Town Old Boys averaging 2.0 expected goals and Boldmere St. Michaels averaging 1.0, the model gives a 54.6% chance both teams find the net, ahead of the 45.4% it gives to at least one side being kept out.

Show the maths

BTTS probability is derived from each side's expected goals (Barton Town Old Boys 2.0, Boldmere St. Michaels 1.0) run through the same Poisson goal-expectancy model used for the match result: 54.6% of simulated outcomes have both teams scoring at least once, versus 45.4% where at least one side is shut out.

Pick 3 · Total Goals

Over 2.5 Goals Won 57.7% model probability

Combined expected goals of 3.0 (Barton Town Old Boys 2.0 + Boldmere St. Michaels 1.0) points to an open game, with the model giving Over 2.5 Goals a 57.7% chance against 42.3% for Under.

Show the maths

Total goals probability comes from the same Poisson model summing both teams' expected goals (Barton Town Old Boys 2.0 + Boldmere St. Michaels 1.0 = 3.0 combined): 57.7% of simulated outcomes finish with 3 or more goals, versus 42.3% finishing with 2 or fewer.

Match Result Model

Our Poisson model, built from each side's real season scoring and conceding rates, has Barton Town Old Boys at 60.5%, the draw at 21.2%, and Boldmere St. Michaels at 18.3% to win.

Most Likely Scoreline

The single most likely scoreline in our model is 1-0 at 10.0% — treat any single scoreline price with caution given how spread out the probability distribution is across a low-scoring match.
