Model vs Closing Market

Strong Disagreement

The closing market prices Al Kholood higher than the statistical model.

Largest probability gap: Al Kholood -12.8 pp

Outcome Model Closing Market Difference Signal
Al Kholood 26.4% 39.2% -12.8 pp Market Higher
Draw 29.4% 24.4% +5.1 pp Model Higher
Al-Fateh 44.2% 36.5% +7.8 pp Model Higher

The closing market estimates Al Kholood's win probability at 39.2%, compared with the model's estimate of 26.4%, a difference of 12.8 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 result was Draw 0–0.

Market Assessment

The market is materially more optimistic about Al Kholood 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.

AI match briefing

AI Match Summary

Below is a compact, numbers-first snapshot aligned with the same engine as the cards above.

  • League: Pro League
  • Fixture: Al Kholood vs Al-Fateh
  • Kickoff: 2026-05-21 17:00:00
  • 1X2 (model): Home 26.4% · Draw 29.4% · Away 44.2%
  • xG (showing): Al Kholood 1.08 — Al-Fateh 1.46 (total xG ≈ 2.54)
  • Primary / headline line (Betting Primary Pick when shown): BTTS No
  • Model: 47.7% · Implied: 36.4% · Probability edge: +11.3 pts · Est. EV: +25.4%
  • BTTS (model): Yes 52.3% · No 47.7%
  • Correct score (top bin): 1-1 (12.4%)

Where EV is shown, it is estimated return per unit stake at the best tracked decimal price — not the same thing as a raw probability gap.

Early match state can move realised goals away from pre-kick projections.

Historical Recommendation

Historical Decision: Monitor

Outcome: Missed — Pre-match 1X2 lean did not match the full-time result.

Risk Factors Considered Before Kickoff

  • Price movement: implied probabilities and EV move with odds.
  • Sample / data gaps: low-information leagues widen forecast bands.
  • In-play state: goals and red cards are not modelled here.
  • Scoreline variance: the most likely scoreline is still usually a low absolute probability outcome (often well below 20%).
