Tracked markets vs full-time result

Prediction grade C

Each row compares the pre-match model lean to the full-time result.

  • Market Prediction Result Outcome
  • Over / Under 2.5 Over 2.5 Over 2.5 (3 goals) ✔ Correct
  • Both Teams To Score BTTS Yes Yes ✔ Correct

Model vs Closing Market

Moderate Disagreement

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

Largest probability gap: Palmeiras +5.7 pp

Outcome Model Closing Market Difference Signal
Palmeiras 64.9% 59.2% +5.7 pp Model Higher
Draw 21.7% 25.4% -3.7 pp Aligned
Atletico-MG 13.5% 15.4% -1.9 pp Aligned

The statistical model estimates Palmeiras's win probability at 64.9%, compared with the closing market's implied probability of 59.2%, a difference of 5.7 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 Atletico-MG win 1–2.

Market Assessment

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

  • Monitor line movement before kickoff — not a betting recommendation.

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: Campeonato Brasileiro Série A
  • Fixture: Palmeiras vs Atlético Mineiro
  • Kickoff: 2026-07-26 22:30:00
  • 1X2 (model): Home 64.9% · Draw 21.7% · Away 13.5%
  • xG (showing): Palmeiras 2.34 — Atlético Mineiro 0.94 (total xG ≈ 3.28)
  • Value headline: None (actionable) — best tracked EV is about +1.6%, still below the +2.0% minimum for a headline / default stake (no default bet).
  • Structural leans (not bets): Structural lean (model): O/U 2.5 Over 2.5 (Under 2.5 36.4% · Over 2.5 63.6%); BTTS Yes (Yes 56.1% · No 43.9%) Value lean (pricing): O/U 2.5 Over 2.5; BTTS Yes
  • BTTS (model): Yes 56.1% · No 43.9%
  • Correct score (top bin): 2-0 (10.3%)

Saying “no value” on a snapshot is a feature, not a bug: it protects readers from forcing a play when the edge is not there.

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

Historical Recommendation

Historical Decision: No Primary Bet

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%).
