Model vs Closing Market

Strong Disagreement

The model rates Gomora United FC considerably stronger than the closing betting market.

Largest probability gap: Gomora United FC +13.3 pp

Outcome Model Closing Market Difference Signal
Cape Town City 41.8% 52.3% -10.5 pp Market Higher
Draw 25.7% 28.4% -2.8 pp Aligned
Gomora United FC 32.6% 19.2% +13.3 pp Model Edge

The statistical model estimates Gomora United FC's win probability at 32.6%, compared with the closing market's implied probability of 19.2%, a difference of 13.3 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 model's directional lean matched the result (Cape Town City win 4–0).

Market Assessment

The statistical fair estimate is materially higher than the market on Gomora United FC.

  • The model may see a slower-scoring or closer matchup than the market.
  • Monitor line movement before kickoff — not a betting recommendation.

Post Match Insights

What worked

  • Expected goals projected a high-scoring match (ΣxG 2.70) — 4 goals materialised
  • Over 2.5 goals aligned with the xG profile

What failed

  • Both Teams To Score: model leaned BTTS Yes; match finished BTTS No
  • Exact score: outside the model's top score bins

Market lesson

Large model–market gaps do not automatically mean the market is right. Here the closing market priced Cape Town City more conservatively (28.5% vs model 41.8%, 13.3 pp), but the model's lean was validated (Cape Town City win 4–0).

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.
