Market briefing

The largest late implied swing on this feed was about 0.89 percentage points on Cruzeiro (1X2) between PRE20 and PRE1.

Model vs. closing implied

Market Model % Closing impl. % Gap (pp)
Cruzeiro (1X2) 40.3 51.7 -11.4
Draw (1X2) 30.0 26.7 +3.3
Sao Paulo (1X2) 29.7 21.6 +8.1
What this means

In plain terms: the model lands near 29.7% on Sao Paulo (1X2), while the closing snapshot implied about 21.6%. The difference — about 8.1 percentage points — is the largest model-vs.-market gap highlighted on this page.

Quick definitions: “closing implied” is the probability for that outcome implied by the final captured odds (after a simple de-vig). “Gap (pp)” is the model percentage minus that implied value, in percentage points (pp).

Closing-window line move

Single prioritized bookmaker per snapshot (not all books). Capture path: PRE20 → PRE1 · Book: betfair → bet365

Column tags in parentheses: Closing uses the first available snapshot in PRE1→PRE5→PRE10→PRE30; Early uses the first available in PRE30→PRE10→PRE5 that is not the same capture as Closing.

Early and closing snapshots used different bookmakers — interpret movement with care.
Market Early (PRE20) Closing (PRE1) Implied Δ (pp)
Cruzeiro (1X2) 1.85 1.81 +0.9
Draw (1X2) 3.5 3.5 -0.1
Sao Paulo (1X2) 4.2 4.33 -0.8

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%).
