Lars's Verdict

Lean

Legia Warszawa to win Won Slight lean Lean · No clear edge

Legia are the clear favorites at home, and the 6.2 odds on a Lubin victory imply a low probability of an upset, making a Legia win the sensible selection.

Show the maths

The market price of 6.2 for a Zagłębie win translates to an implied probability of about 14% (1/6.2). In the absence of model xG data, we treat the remaining 86% as the combined chance for Legia win or draw. Since the draw option is not being taken, the implied win probability for Legia is roughly 70‑80%, well above the break‑even threshold, giving us a modest confidence in the Legia win pick.

Pick 2 · Both Teams to Score

Both Teams to Score — Yes Won 54.9% model probability

With Legia Warszawa averaging 1.35 expected goals and Zagłębie Lubin 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 (Legia Warszawa 1.35, Zagłębie Lubin 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 Won 50.6% model probability

Combined expected goals of 2.7 (Legia Warszawa 1.35 + Zagłębie Lubin 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 (Legia Warszawa 1.35 + Zagłębie Lubin 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 Legia Warszawa at 37.1%, the draw at 25.8%, and Zagłębie Lubin at 37.1% to win.

Most Likely Scoreline

The single most likely scoreline in our model is 1-1 at 12.2% — treat any single scoreline price with caution given how spread out the probability distribution is across a low-scoring match.
