Let G be a simple graph and let S(G) be the subdivision graph ofG, which is obtained from G by replacing each edge of G by a path of length two. In this paper, by the Principle of Inclusion and Exclusion we express the matching polynomial and Hosoya index ofS(G) in terms of the matchings ofG. Particularly, if G is a regular graph or a semi-regular bipartite graph, then the closed formulae of the matching polynomial and Hosoya index ofS(G) are obtained. As an application, we prove a combinatorial identity.
