📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
The points were shared at Red Bull Arena, Championship Round - 5, as Red Bull Salzburg and Wolfsberger AC drew 1-1 in the Bundesliga. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.
The Model vs The Result
The Poisson model went into this projecting Red Bull Salzburg 1.64 xG and Wolfsberger AC 1.29 xG, a combined 2.93. The scoreboard read 1-1 for 2 actual goals. Both sides finished within a goal of their individual projections, so the scoreline sat close to the model's expected shape. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Red Bull Salzburg attack 1.10 / defence 0.79 against Wolfsberger AC attack 1.36 / defence 0.93, drawn from 44/44 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Red Bull Salzburg 43% | Draw 30% | Wolfsberger AC 27%, with Red Bull Salzburg to win its most likely call at 43%. The actual draw had been the model's second-ranked read at 30%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 56%. The game delivered 2, so it stayed under — the opposite of the projected direction. Over 1.5 had been 82% and landed.
