Poisson hints for the reason that the goal average is higher in Holland than in France, thus etc thus that e.g. for a match between two average strength opponents is let's say: A' FRANCE-------------- A' HOLLAND p(0) p(1) p(2) p(3) -----p(0) p(1) p(2) p(3) 20% 30% 25% 15% ----10% 15% 20% 30% where p(1)=probability that each of the two teams will score 1 goal Thus that lower the probability for a draw in Holland. But Poisson assumes that the number of attacks per game is the same everywhere (it tends this number to infinity), and this already misses basic reasons. Premier League has high goal per match and high draw percentage. Why?
