Model vs Closing Market

Strong Disagreement

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

Largest probability gap: Podbrezová +30.6 pp

Outcome Model Closing Market Difference Signal
Žilina 22.5% 50.8% -28.4 pp Market Higher
Draw 25.4% 27.6% -2.2 pp Aligned
Podbrezová 52.1% 21.6% +30.6 pp Model Edge

The statistical model estimates Podbrezová's win probability at 52.1%, compared with the closing market's implied probability of 21.6%, a difference of 30.6 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: PRE5.

After full time, the result was Žilina win 3–1.

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

Model favours Podbrezová; market prices Žilina instead — inputs may be missing or stale.

  • Model: Žilina 1.17 xG vs Podbrezová 1.86 → Podbrezová 52.1%
  • Market: Žilina ~21.6% implied
  • Validation failed — do not treat 1X2 EV as actionable.

Do not act on 1X2 value until validation passes. Structural leans (O/U, BTTS) need separate odds review.

Structural lean (model): O/U 2.5 Over 2.5 (Under 2.5 41.6% · Over 2.5 58.4%); BTTS Yes (Yes 59.6% · No 40.4%) Value lean (pricing): O/U 2.5 Over 2.5; BTTS Yes

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%).
