Afghanistan vs Pakistan Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 1.31 expected goals for Afghanistan and 0.89 for Pakistan, a combined total of 2.20. That distribution gives Afghanistan the largest share of the 1X2 market at 46%, with the draw at 28%. Goals markets follow the same shape: 38% for over 2.5 goals and 43% for both teams to score, with 1–0 the single most likely scoreline at 15%. Probabilities are statistical estimates and carry meaningful uncertainty — a 46% favourite still loses or draws a large share of the time.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Afghanistan win, at 46.4%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–0.

It puts both teams scoring at 43% and over 2.5 goals at 38%.

A 46% selection is expected to miss in the remaining share of matches, and football regularly produces red cards, injuries and tactical changes the data cannot see. Treat this as a probability, not a forecast of the result.
