Model vs Closing Market

Strong Disagreement

The closing market prices Inter Miami higher than the statistical model.

Largest probability gap: Inter Miami -18.2 pp

Outcome Model Closing Market Difference Signal
Inter Miami 48.8% 67.0% -18.2 pp Market Higher
Draw 24.2% 16.9% +7.3 pp Model Higher
San Diego 27.0% 16.1% +10.9 pp Model Edge

The closing market estimates Inter Miami's win probability at 67.0%, compared with the model's estimate of 48.8%, a difference of 18.2 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 2–2.

Market Assessment

The market is materially more optimistic about Inter Miami 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

Pre-match snapshot for this fixture.

  • League: Major League Soccer
  • Fixture: Inter Miami vs San Diego
  • Kickoff: 2026-09-20 23:00:00
  • 1X2 (model): Home 48.8% · Draw 24.2% · Away 27.0%
  • xG (showing): Inter Miami 1.98 — San Diego 1.45 (total xG ≈ 3.43)
  • Value headline: At least one tracked line reaches the headline EV threshold — align with the hero / Primary card if shown.
  • Structural leans (not bets): Structural lean (model): O/U 2.5 Under 2.5 (Under 2.5 33.4% · Over 2.5 66.6%); BTTS No (Yes 67.2% · No 32.8%) Value lean (pricing): O/U 2.5 Under 2.5; BTTS No
  • BTTS (model): Yes 67.2% · No 32.8%
  • Correct score (top bin): 1-1 (9.3%)

The decision block shows no default Primary: Primary needs consensus EV ≥ +5.0% plus strength/reliability/calibration gates. A separate Lean/tracked gate is +2.0% (selective only). Lean labels are directional only — not bankroll-sized recommendations.

Prefer skipping to over-staking when the engine is honest about missing edge.

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%).
