Model vs Closing Market

Strong Disagreement

The closing market prices FC Porto higher than the statistical model.

Largest probability gap: FC Porto -19.0 pp

Outcome Model Closing Market Difference Signal
FC Porto 64.1% 83.0% -19.0 pp Market Higher
Draw 24.3% 11.5% +12.8 pp Model Edge
Alverca 11.6% 5.5% +6.1 pp Model Higher

The closing market estimates FC Porto's win probability at 83.0%, compared with the model's estimate of 64.1%, a difference of 19.0 percentage points. This highlights a disagreement between the model and market consensus, without indicating which view is ultimately correct.

Model probabilities are generated from the statistical xG model using a Poisson distribution. Closing market probabilities are derived from consensus closing 1X2 odds after margin removal. Values represent implied probabilities rather than betting recommendations. Closing snapshot: PRE1.

After full time, the model's directional lean matched the result (FC Porto win 1–0).

Market Assessment

The market is materially more optimistic about FC Porto than the current fair estimate.

  • Investors may be incorporating information not fully reflected in the baseline model.
  • Tournament-specific context can shift market pricing.

Review FAQ

How accurate was the prediction?
This page grades directional markets (1X2, Over/Under 2.5, BTTS) against the full-time result. The prediction grade reflects how many of those tracked markets matched reality.
What does xG Accuracy measure?
xG Accuracy compares the model's pre-match expected-goals profile to the actual scoreline — not whether every market hit. A strong directional review can coexist with a moderate xG accuracy score.
Why wasn't the exact score predicted?
Correct-score outcomes are low-probability tails even when the model reads the match profile well. We highlight top score bins for context; missing the exact line does not invalidate a directional review.
Does this improve the AI record?
Each finished match is logged in our validation pipeline. Aggregated hit rates and CLV studies are published separately — this page is the per-match audit trail.
