Model vs Closing Market

Moderate Disagreement

The model rates Algeciras considerably stronger than the closing betting market.

Largest probability gap: Algeciras +6.9 pp

Outcome Model Closing Market Difference Signal
Algeciras 41.8% 34.9% +6.9 pp Model Higher
Draw 25.7% 30.2% -4.5 pp Aligned
FC Cartagena 32.6% 35.0% -2.4 pp Aligned

The statistical model estimates Algeciras's win probability at 41.8%, compared with the closing market's implied probability of 34.9%, a difference of 6.9 percentage points. This highlights a substantial disagreement between the model's assessment and the market consensus, rather than 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 result was Draw 2–2.

Market Assessment

The fair estimate shows a modest edge over current market pricing on Algeciras.

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.
