Poisson distribution is a method that works best for calculating statistics in sports where scoring is rare and happens in 1️⃣ increments of one. This is why it is most widely used in association football, and occasionally in hockey, but not 1️⃣ really utilised elsewhere – at least, not successfully.
That’s why, in this article, we’re going to focus on the former in 1️⃣ particular, and why much of what we’ll write will be applicable to football alone. With that said, let’s begin…
What Is 1️⃣ Poisson Distribution?
Poisson distribution is a method of calculating the most likely score in a sporting event such as football. Used 1️⃣ by many experienced gamblers to help shape their strategies, it relies on the calculation of attack and defence strength to 1️⃣ reach a final figure.
A mathematical concept, Poisson distribution works by converting mean averages into a probability. If we say, for 1️⃣ example, that the football club we’re looking at scores an average of 1.7 goals in each of their games, the 1️⃣ formula would give us the following probabilities:
