Largest probability gap: Cavalry FC -27.8 pp

Outcome Model Closing Market Difference Signal
Cavalry FC 33.8% 61.6% -27.8 pp Market Higher

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: Canadian Premier League
  • Fixture: Cavalry FC vs Atlético Ottawa
  • Kickoff: 2026-08-22 20:30:00
  • 1X2 (model): Home 33.8% · Draw 23.1% · Away 43.1%
  • xG (showing): Cavalry FC 1.8 — Atlético Ottawa 2.04 (total xG ≈ 3.84)
  • Best +EV line (same label as hero card when Primary thresholds are not met): Atlético Ottawa
  • Model: 43.1% · Implied: 16.7% · Probability edge: +26.4 pts · Est. EV: +9.2%
  • BTTS (model): Yes 73.6% · No 26.4%
  • Correct score (top bin): 1-2 (8.1%)

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: Wait

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%).
