Model vs Closing Market

Moderate Disagreement

Largest probability gap: Kauno Žalgiris -5.2 pp

Outcome Model Closing Market Difference Signal
Kauno Žalgiris 40.4% 45.6% -5.2 pp Market Higher
Draw 29.4% 27.6% +1.9 pp Aligned
Suduva Marijampole 30.1% 26.8% +3.4 pp Aligned

The closing market estimates Kauno Žalgiris's win probability at 45.6%, compared with the model's estimate of 40.4%, a difference of 5.2 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 model's directional lean matched the result (Kauno Žalgiris win 5–1).

Market Assessment

The market and model broadly agree on Kauno Žalgiris. The remaining divergence may reflect differences in team-strength assumptions rather than a directional disagreement.

  • 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 Summary

Pre-match snapshot for this fixture.

  • Fixture: Kauno Žalgiris vs Suduva Marijampole
  • Kickoff: 2026-09-09 15:45:00
  • 1X2 (model): Home 40.5% · Draw 29.4% · Away 30.1%

  • Correct score (top bin): 1-1 (12.5%)

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: 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%).
