Model vs Closing Market

Strong Disagreement

The closing market prices Macara higher than the statistical model.

Largest probability gap: Macara -17.3 pp

Outcome Model Closing Market Difference Signal
Macara 32.9% 50.2% -17.3 pp Market Higher
Draw 31.3% 28.7% +2.7 pp Aligned
Emelec 35.8% 21.1% +14.7 pp Model Edge

The closing market estimates Macara's win probability at 50.2%, compared with the model's estimate of 32.9%, a difference of 17.3 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 Macara win 1–0.

Market Assessment

The market is materially more optimistic about Macara 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: Liga Pro
  • Fixture: Macara vs Emelec
  • Kickoff: 2026-09-13 20:30:00
  • 1X2 (model): Home 32.9% · Draw 31.3% · Away 35.8%
  • xG (showing): Macara 1.15 — Emelec 1.21 (total xG ≈ 2.36)
  • Best +EV line (same label as hero card when Primary thresholds are not met): Emelec
  • Model: 35.8% · Implied: 21.1% · Probability edge: +14.7 pts · Est. EV: +5.2%
  • BTTS (model): Yes 49.7% · No 50.3%
  • Correct score (top bin): 1-1 (13.1%)

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: 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%).
