Robbo's Verdict

Strong
Uxbridge to win Strong lean Strong · Home dominance

With a three‑goal home scoring average and a clean defensive sheet, Uxbridge’s odds of winning sit at 70.4%, making the win the most probable outcome.

Show the maths
The model assigns Uxbridge an expected goal value of 3.0 versus Farnborough’s 1.35, creating a 1.65 xG gap. This gap translates into a 70.4% probability of a Uxbridge win, while the draw and Farnborough win chances sit at 14.9% and 14.3% respectively. The large xG advantage therefore drives the model’s clear win bias.
Pick 2 · Both Teams to Score
Both Teams to Score — Yes 70.1% model probability

With Uxbridge averaging 3.0 expected goals and Farnborough averaging 1.35, 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 (Uxbridge 3.0, Farnborough 1.35) 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
Over 2.5 Goals 80.5% model probability

Combined expected goals of 4.3 (Uxbridge 3.0 + Farnborough 1.35) points to an open game, with the model giving Over 2.5 Goals a 80.5% chance against 19.5% for Under.

Show the maths
Total goals probability comes from the same Poisson model summing both teams' expected goals (Uxbridge 3.0 + Farnborough 1.35 = 4.3 combined): 80.5% of simulated outcomes finish with 3 or more goals, versus 19.5% finishing with 2 or fewer.

Form Guide — Last 5

Uxbridge

W

Uxbridge’s recent form includes a 3‑0 victory over Haywards Heath Town at home, confirming their ability to score freely and keep clean sheets. That win, combined with a three‑goal home average, shows the side is in fine scoring rhythm and reinforces the expectation of another win in this cup tie.

Farnborough

Farnborough’s recent league form is unavailable, but their away record shows zero goals scored and zero conceded, indicating a lack of offensive output on the road. This absence of scoring threat supports the view that they are unlikely to overturn the home side’s advantage.
