Model vs Closing Market

Strong Disagreement

The closing market prices Borussia Dortmund higher than the statistical model.

Largest probability gap: Borussia Dortmund -29.3 pp

Outcome Model Closing Market Difference Signal
Borussia Dortmund 46.4% 75.7% -29.3 pp Market Higher
Draw 24.4% 14.5% +9.9 pp Model Higher
SC Paderborn 07 29.1% 9.8% +19.4 pp Model Edge

The closing market estimates Borussia Dortmund's win probability at 75.7%, compared with the model's estimate of 46.4%, a difference of 29.3 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 model's directional lean matched the result (Borussia Dortmund win 3–0).

Post Match Insights

What worked

  • Expected goals projected a high-scoring match (ΣxG 3.44) — 3 goals materialised
  • Borussia Dortmund attacking xG significantly stronger (1.93 vs 1.51)
  • Over 2.5 goals aligned with the xG profile

What failed

  • Both Teams To Score: model leaned BTTS Yes; match finished BTTS No
  • Exact score: outside the model's top score bins

Market lesson

Large model–market gaps do not automatically mean the market is right. Here the closing market priced Borussia Dortmund higher (75.7% vs model 46.4%, 29.3 pp), but the model's lean was validated (Borussia Dortmund win 3–0).

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: Bundesliga
  • Fixture: Borussia Dortmund vs SC Paderborn 07
  • Kickoff: 2026-09-12 13:30:00
  • 1X2 (model): Home 45.0% · Draw 45.0% · Away 10.0%
  • xG (showing): Borussia Dortmund 1.93 — SC Paderborn 07 1.51 (total xG ≈ 3.44)
  • Value headline: None — no positive EV could be estimated on tracked lines at current best prices (missing odds or thin book depth).
  • Structural leans (not bets): See the Over/Under and BTTS cards for any directional lean text.
  • BTTS (model): Yes N/A · No N/A
  • Correct score (top bin): N/A

The decision block shows no default Primary: Primary needs consensus EV ≥ +5.0% plus strength/reliability/calibration gates. A separate Lean/tracked gate is +2.0% (selective only). Lean labels are directional only — not bankroll-sized recommendations.

If lines move materially, re-run generation or refresh — implied probabilities and any future EV readouts will change first.

Historical Recommendation

Historical Decision: Wait

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%).
