Rayon Sports vs Sunrise Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 1.00 expected goals for Rayon Sports and 0.69 for Sunrise, a combined total of 1.70. That distribution gives Rayon Sports the largest share of the 1X2 market at 42%, with the draw at 34%. Goals markets follow the same shape: 24% for over 2.5 goals and 32% for both teams to score, with 1–0 the single most likely scoreline at 18%. Probabilities are statistical estimates and carry meaningful uncertainty — a 42% favourite still loses or draws a large share of the time.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Home/Draw, at 75.4%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–0.

It puts both teams scoring at 32% and over 2.5 goals at 24%.

A 75% 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.
