Galway United vs Bohemians Prediction, Odds & Statistics
Our Poisson-based model projects 1.30 expected goals for Galway United and 1.58 for Bohemians, a combined total of 2.88. That distribution gives Bohemians 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 12%. 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 68.4%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–1.
It puts both teams scoring at 58% and over 2.5 goals at 55%.
A 68% 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.
