Guinea vs Kenya Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 1.39 expected goals for Guinea and 0.51 for Kenya, a combined total of 1.90. That distribution gives Guinea the largest share of the 1X2 market at 59%, with the draw at 28%. Goals markets follow the same shape: 30% for over 2.5 goals and 30% for both teams to score, with 1–0 the single most likely scoreline at 21%. Probabilities are statistical estimates and carry meaningful uncertainty — a 59% favourite still loses or draws a large share of the time.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Guinea win, at 58.8%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–0.

It puts both teams scoring at 30% and over 2.5 goals at 30%.

A 59% 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.
