Largest probability gap: Al-Hilal Saudi FC -14.0 pp

Outcome Model Closing Market Difference Signal
Al-Fayha 12.8% 9.2% +3.6 pp Aligned
Draw 23.4% 13.0% +10.3 pp Model Edge
Al-Hilal Saudi FC 63.8% 77.8% -14.0 pp Market Higher

The closing market estimates Al-Hilal Saudi FC's win probability at 77.8%, compared with the model's estimate of 63.8%, a difference of 14.0 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 (Al-Hilal Saudi FC win 0–1).

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

Quick read on how the model reads this matchup.

  • League: Pro League
  • Fixture: Al-Fayha vs Al-Hilal Saudi FC
  • Kickoff: 2026-05-21 17:00:00
  • 1X2 (model): Home 12.8% · Draw 23.4% · Away 63.8%
  • xG (showing): Al-Fayha 0.78 — Al-Hilal Saudi FC 1.96 (total xG ≈ 2.74)
  • Primary / headline line (Betting Primary Pick when shown): Under 2.5 goals
  • Model: 48.4% · Implied: 31.6% · Probability edge: +16.8 pts · Est. EV: +52.0%
  • BTTS (model): Yes 47.8% · No 52.2%
  • Correct score (top bin): 0-1 (12.7%)

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.

Correct score remains high-variance even when a line is most likely on paper.

Historical Recommendation

Historical Decision: Monitor

Outcome: Validated — Pre-match lean validated against 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%).
