Model vs Closing Market

Strong Disagreement

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

Largest probability gap: CRB +18.8 pp

Outcome Model Closing Market Difference Signal
CRB 66.7% 47.9% +18.8 pp Model Edge
Draw 17.8% 28.9% -11.1 pp Market Higher
Nautico Recife 15.5% 23.2% -7.7 pp Market Higher

The statistical model estimates CRB's win probability at 66.7%, compared with the closing market's implied probability of 47.9%, a difference of 18.8 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 (CRB win 2–1).

Market Assessment

The statistical fair estimate is materially higher than the market on CRB.

  • 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 4.16) — 3 goals materialised
  • CRB attacking xG significantly stronger (2.80 vs 1.36)
  • Both Teams To Score (Yes) matched the full-time result

Market lesson

Large model–market gaps do not automatically mean the market is right. Here the closing market priced CRB more conservatively (47.9% vs model 66.7%, 18.8 pp), but the model's lean was validated (CRB win 2–1).

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

Quick read on how the model reads this matchup.

  • League: Campeonato Brasileiro Série B
  • Fixture: CRB vs Náutico
  • Kickoff: 2026-07-16 23:00:00
  • 1X2 (model): Home 66.7% · Draw 17.8% · Away 15.5%
  • xG (showing): CRB 2.8 — Náutico 1.36 (total xG ≈ 4.16)
  • Best +EV line (same label as hero card when Primary thresholds are not met): CRB
  • Model: 66.7% · Implied: 47.9% · Probability edge: +18.8 pts · Est. EV: +8.4%
  • BTTS (model): Yes 70.6% · No 29.4%
  • Correct score (top bin): 2-1 (8.3%)

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.

Correct score remains high-variance even when a line is most likely on paper.

Historical Recommendation

Historical Decision: Monitor

Outcome: Validated — Pre-match lean validated against 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%).
