Model vs Closing Market

Strong Disagreement

The closing market prices HNK Rijeka higher than the statistical model.

Largest probability gap: HNK Rijeka -23.1 pp

Outcome Model Closing Market Difference Signal
HNK Rijeka 62.1% 85.2% -23.1 pp Market Higher
Draw 22.3% 11.3% +11.0 pp Model Edge
Derry City 15.6% 3.5% +12.1 pp Model Edge

The closing market estimates HNK Rijeka's win probability at 85.2%, compared with the model's estimate of 62.1%, a difference of 23.1 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 (HNK Rijeka win 1–0).

Post Match Insights

Market lesson

Large model–market gaps do not automatically mean the market is right. Here the closing market priced HNK Rijeka higher (85.2% vs model 62.1%, 23.1 pp), but the model's lean was validated (HNK Rijeka win 1–0).

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

Pre-match snapshot for this fixture.

  • League: UEFA Europa Conference League
  • Fixture: HNK Rijeka vs Derry City
  • Kickoff: 2026-07-23 18:45:00
  • 1X2 (model): Home 62.1% · Draw 22.3% · Away 15.6%
  • xG (showing): HNK Rijeka 1.35 — Derry City 1.25 (total xG ≈ 2.6)
  • Value headline: At least one tracked line reaches the headline EV threshold — align with the hero / Primary card if shown.
  • Structural leans (not bets): Structural lean (model): O/U 2.5 Under 2.5 (Under 2.5 51.8% · Over 2.5 48.2%); BTTS Yes (Yes 54.5% · No 45.5%) Value lean (pricing): O/U 2.5 Under 2.5; BTTS Yes
  • BTTS (model): Yes 54.5% · No 45.5%
  • Correct score (top bin): 1-1 (12.5%)

When book depth is thin or odds are missing, EV may be unavailable even though the model still prefers one side on totals or BTTS — wait for cleaner prices or skip.

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%).
