Lars's Verdict

Strong
FC Thun draw no bet Won Strong · High win‑draw odds

Back Thun to avoid defeat; the model gives them a combined 68.4% chance of win or draw versus a 31.4% loss risk.

Show the maths
The model assigns 49.5% to a Thun win and 18.9% to a draw, totalling 68.4% for Thun not losing. St. Gallen’s win probability sits at 31.4%, which is the only scenario where the draw‑no‑bet would fail. Because the combined win‑draw figure exceeds two‑thirds, the pick reflects the strongest single‑market edge the model offers.
Pick 2 · Both Teams to Score
Both Teams to Score — Yes Won 79.2% model probability

With FC ST. Gallen averaging 2.0 expected goals and FC Thun averaging 2.5, the model gives a 79.2% chance both teams find the net, ahead of the 20.8% it gives to at least one side being kept out.

Show the maths
BTTS probability is derived from each side's expected goals (FC ST. Gallen 2.0, FC Thun 2.5) run through the same Poisson goal-expectancy model used for the match result: 79.2% of simulated outcomes have both teams scoring at least once, versus 20.8% where at least one side is shut out.
Pick 3 · Total Goals
Over 2.5 Goals Won 82.5% model probability

Combined expected goals of 4.5 (FC ST. Gallen 2.0 + FC Thun 2.5) points to an open game, with the model giving Over 2.5 Goals a 82.5% chance against 17.5% for Under.

Show the maths
Total goals probability comes from the same Poisson model summing both teams' expected goals (FC ST. Gallen 2.0 + FC Thun 2.5 = 4.5 combined): 82.5% of simulated outcomes finish with 3 or more goals, versus 17.5% finishing with 2 or fewer.
Match Result Model

Our Poisson model, built from each side's real season scoring and conceding rates, has FC ST. Gallen at 31.4%, the draw at 18.9%, and FC Thun at 49.5% to win.

Most Likely Scoreline

The single most likely scoreline in our model is 1-2 at 6.9% — treat any single scoreline price with caution given how spread out the probability distribution is across a low-scoring match.

FC ST. Gallen

WWD

St. Gallen’s last five league outings read W‑W‑D, highlighted by a 2‑1 home victory over FC Zurich and a 3‑2 away win at FC Vaduz, showing they can breach defenses. The recent 2‑2 draw with Luzern at home underlines their ability to keep games level, reinforcing a solid but not dominant attacking threat for this fixture.

FC Thun

WLL

Thun’s five‑match run of W‑L‑L includes a 3‑1 away triumph over Luzern, evidencing their capacity to score on the road, but heavy defeats of 0‑6 to Young Boys and 2‑4 to Basel expose defensive frailties. These results suggest Thun can produce goals but may also concede, aligning with a draw‑no‑bet rather than a clean win.

Head-to-Head

In the last five meetings the teams have produced three draws (1‑1, 2‑2, 3‑3) and two wins each, most recently a 1‑1 stalemate, indicating that a draw‑no‑bet on Thun is consistent with the evenly matched head‑to‑head record.
