50.6% model probability

In the FA Cup first round, both sides have shown similar attacking output this season, with each averaging 1.35 expected goals per game. With no decisive edge in raw scoring power, the key question is which team can avoid the draw and secure the three points.

Robbo's Verdict

Solid

Chertsey Town draw no bet Void Solid · Home advantage

The model’s win‑vs‑draw split gives Chertsey Town a 59% chance to avoid a draw, making the draw‑no‑bet market the clearest edge.

Show the maths

The model assigns 37.1% to a Chertsey win and 25.8% to a draw. Removing the draw from the equation leaves a combined 62.9% chance of either result. Dividing the win share (37.1) by that total yields 0.59, or 59%, which is the probability behind the draw‑no‑bet pick. The identical expected‑goals for both teams (1.35) confirms that the model sees no out‑of‑balance in attack, so the home side’s slight statistical edge after eliminating the draw is the decisive factor.

Pick 2 · Both Teams to Score

Both Teams to Score — Yes Won 54.9% model probability

With Chertsey Town averaging 1.35 expected goals and Carshalton Athletic averaging 1.35, the model gives a 54.9% chance both teams find the net, ahead of the 45.1% it gives to at least one side being kept out.

Show the maths

BTTS probability is derived from each side's expected goals (Chertsey Town 1.35, Carshalton Athletic 1.35) run through the same Poisson goal-expectancy model used for the match result: 54.9% of simulated outcomes have both teams scoring at least once, versus 45.1% where at least one side is shut out.

Pick 3 · Total Goals

Over 2.5 Goals Lost 50.6% model probability

Combined expected goals of 2.7 (Chertsey Town 1.35 + Carshalton Athletic 1.35) points to an open game, with the model giving Over 2.5 Goals a 50.6% chance against 49.4% for Under.

Show the maths

Total goals probability comes from the same Poisson model summing both teams' expected goals (Chertsey Town 1.35 + Carshalton Athletic 1.35 = 2.7 combined): 50.6% of simulated outcomes finish with 3 or more goals, versus 49.4% finishing with 2 or fewer.

Match Result Model

Our Poisson model, built from each side's real season scoring and conceding rates, has Chertsey Town at 37.1%, the draw at 25.8%, and Carshalton Athletic at 37.1% to win.

Most Likely Scoreline
