By using our fantastic Statistics Pro -service. We noticed that Finnish SM-liiga team Jokerit from Helsinki haven’t won their last 10 away games in SM-liiga playoffs outside Helsinki. Only wins as an away team has been against local team HIFK. Here is a screenshot of our stats filter (Statistics Pro) showing only playoffs games in the head-to-head statistics:
Last time Lukko’s odds was 3.77 at PinnacleSports and they won 5-2. At the time of writing this article the best odds for tonight’s Lukko – Jokerit game are:

Of course you can do much more than showing just playoffs games. You can get statistics only for certain period (first, second, third or all overtime games), or filter games by 1×2 odds. Choose small odds to see games where team has been clear favorite and big odds when playing as clear underdog. When you choose to view statistics for 1. period only, you’ll also see odds comparison for 1. period bets! In soccer you’ll also get odds for 2nd half too.
Edit: Game result was Lukko – Jokerit 2-1 so this was Jokerit’s 11th loss at away from home town in playoffs! Nice winning odds for “underdog” Lukko again (3.44).

How does Poisson distribution work in football (soccer) goal probability calculations? In this article we have research data from the following European leagues in our soccer database:
Leagues: English Premier League, English Championship, Italian Serie A, Spanish Primera División and French Ligue 1
All the results we have till 9th of March 2013. Regular season games and regular playtime only, awarded games not included (note: we might not have all the awarded games info stored into our database).
Home goal average = 1.5042
Away goal average = 1.0639
n = 39 996 games
Poisson results here are quite accurately showing goal probabilities per team – except for the high number of goals for away team (which has much lower goal average).
Mathematically we can calculate each possible final score probability by multiplying each home goal probability by each away goal probability. Here you can see the results. Math (Poisson) works quite well for most of the scores but not all:
Mathematical model differs most at 0-0, 0-1 and 1-2 results. Notice that real world tie (draw) probability is higher than what is mathematically calculated:
*Math percentages calculated using each possible goal combination – not just 0 -> 3 goals as shown in the Final score table.
Poisson Distribution is a simple predictive model that doesn’t allow for a lot of factors. The system is of greatest benefit over a long period of time – using it for a whole season’s worth of games, rather than one-off matches.
There is an easy way to calculate a great variety of soccer goal probabilities (for example: correct score, asian handicaps, total goals, team totals) from goal average values using PoissoNed! online calculator which has also lots of adjustable parameters like tie probability multiplier or adjusting (“forcing”) the results to certain home win – tie – away win % distribution:
See some of the results here (open the calculator from the link above to see all the probabilities). Value odds (decimal odds format) are next to the percentages. They are also available in UK and US odds.
