Robbo's Verdict

Strong

Crowborough Athletic to win Strong lean Strong · Clear statistical edge

The model assigns a 70.4% win probability to Crowborough, reflecting their superior expected goals and recent away form.

Show the maths

Crowborough’s expected goals of 3.0 are more than double Hampton’s 1.35, creating a substantial xG gap. The model converts this gap into a 70.4% win probability for Crowborough and only 14.3% for the hosts, with the draw at 14.9%. This distribution shows that the most likely outcome is a Crowborough win, matching the top scorelines of 1‑2 and 1‑3.

Pick 2 · Both Teams to Score

Both Teams to Score — Yes 70.1% model probability

With Hampton & Richmond averaging 1.35 expected goals and Crowborough Athletic averaging 3.0, the model gives a 70.1% chance both teams find the net, ahead of the 29.9% it gives to at least one side being kept out.

Show the maths

BTTS probability is derived from each side's expected goals (Hampton & Richmond 1.35, Crowborough Athletic 3.0) run through the same Poisson goal-expectancy model used for the match result: 70.1% of simulated outcomes have both teams scoring at least once, versus 29.9% where at least one side is shut out.

Pick 3 · Total Goals
