Serbia vs Latvia Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 1.61 expected goals for Serbia and 0.80 for Latvia, a combined total of 2.41. That distribution gives Serbia the largest share of the 1X2 market at 57%, with the draw at 25%. Goals markets follow the same shape: 43% for over 2.5 goals and 44% for both teams to score, with 1–0 the single most likely scoreline at 15%. Probabilities are statistical estimates and carry meaningful uncertainty — a 57% favourite still loses or draws a large share of the time.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Serbia win, at 56.7%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–0.

It puts both teams scoring at 44% and over 2.5 goals at 43%.

A 57% 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.
