Villarreal vs Levante Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 2.01 expected goals for Villarreal and 0.94 for Levante, a combined total of 2.95. That distribution gives Villarreal the largest share of the 1X2 market at 62%, with the draw at 21%. Goals markets follow the same shape: 57% for over 2.5 goals and 53% for both teams to score, with 2–0 the single most likely scoreline at 11%. Probabilities are statistical estimates and carry meaningful uncertainty — a 62% favourite still loses or draws a large share of the time.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Villarreal win, at 62.2%. Its single most likely scoreline is 2–0.

It puts both teams scoring at 53% and over 2.5 goals at 57%.

A 62% 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.
