Dundee vs Aberdeen Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 1.39 expected goals for Dundee and 0.82 for Aberdeen, a combined total of 2.21. That distribution gives Dundee the largest share of the 1X2 market at 50%, with the draw at 28%. Goals markets follow the same shape: 38% for over 2.5 goals and 42% for both teams to score, with 1–0 the single most likely scoreline at 15%. Probabilities are statistical estimates and carry meaningful uncertainty — a 50% favourite still loses or draws a large share of the time.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Dundee win, at 50.2%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–0.

It puts both teams scoring at 42% and over 2.5 goals at 38%.

A 50% 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.
