Both Teams to Score — Yes 72.1% model probability

With Vasteras SK FK averaging 2.0 expected goals and Djurgardens IF averaging 1.8, the model gives a 72.1% chance both teams find the net, ahead of the 27.9% it gives to at least one side being kept out.

Show the maths
BTTS probability is derived from each side's expected goals (Vasteras SK FK 2.0, Djurgardens IF 1.8) run through the same Poisson goal-expectancy model used for the match result: 72.1% of simulated outcomes have both teams scoring at least once, versus 27.9% where at least one side is shut out.
Pick 3 · Total Goals
Over 2.5 Goals 73.1% model probability
