The FA Cup tie pits two non‑league sides against each other in what promises to be a tightly contested encounter. With no league form data available, the preview leans on the statistical profile each club carries into the match.

Robbo's Verdict

Solid

Both teams to score – Yes Lost Solid lean Solid · Slight edge

The model assigns a 54.9% probability to both sides scoring, the highest confidence signal among the available markets.

Show the maths

Each club's expected goals sits at 1.35, meaning the model predicts roughly one to two chances per side. Translating those figures into a probability distribution gives a 54.9% chance that both clubs will convert at least one of those chances, outweighing the 45.1% chance of a clean sheet. The balanced win probabilities (37.1% each) further suggest neither defense will dominate, reinforcing the BTTS likelihood.

Pick 2 · Both Teams to Score

Both Teams to Score — Yes Lost 54.9% model probability

With Redcar Athletic averaging 1.35 expected goals and Stocksbridge Park Steels 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 (Redcar Athletic 1.35, Stocksbridge Park Steels 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 (Redcar Athletic 1.35 + Stocksbridge Park Steels 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 (Redcar Athletic 1.35 + Stocksbridge Park Steels 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 Redcar Athletic at 37.1%, the draw at 25.8%, and Stocksbridge Park Steels 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.
