Burnley vs Stoke City Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 1.30 expected goals for Burnley and 1.60 for Stoke City, a combined total of 2.90. That distribution gives Stoke City the largest share of the 1X2 market at 44%, with the draw at 25%. Goals markets follow the same shape: 55% for over 2.5 goals and 58% for both teams to score, with 1–1 the single most likely scoreline at 11%. Probabilities are statistical estimates and carry meaningful uncertainty — a 44% favourite still loses or draws a large share of the time.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Draw/Away, at 68.9%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–1.

It puts both teams scoring at 58% and over 2.5 goals at 55%.

A 69% 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.
