Willem II vs Fortuna Sittard Prediction, Odds & Statistics

Our Poisson-based model projects 1.32 expected goals for Willem II and 1.32 for Fortuna Sittard, a combined total of 2.64.

Goals markets follow the same shape: 49% for over 2.5 goals and 54% for both teams to score, with 1–1 the single most likely scoreline at 12%.

Prediction conclusion

The model's leading selection is Home/Draw, at 63.1%. Its single most likely scoreline is 1–1.

It puts both teams scoring at 54% and over 2.5 goals at 49%.

A 63% 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.
