EPS vs NJS Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 3.56 expected goals for EPS and 0.64 for NJS, a combined total of 4.21. That distribution gives EPS the largest share of the 1X2 market at 89%, with the draw at 8%. Goals markets follow the same shape: 78% for over 2.5 goals and 46% for both teams to score, with 3–0 the single most likely scoreline at 11%. Probabilities are statistical estimates and carry meaningful uncertainty — a 89% favourite still loses or draws a large share of the time.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is EPS win, at 89.1%. Its single most likely scoreline is 3–0.

It puts both teams scoring at 46% and over 2.5 goals at 78%.

A 89% 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.
