📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

The Model vs The Result

The Poisson model went into this projecting K. Lierse S.K. 1.31 xG and Seraing United 0.86 xG, a combined 2.17. The scoreboard read 0-1 for 1 actual goal. K. Lierse S.K. fell 1.3 short of their projected output. Those figures were built on strength ratings of K. Lierse S.K. attack 0.94 / defence 0.99 against Seraing United attack 0.66 / defence 1.04, drawn from 51/51 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it K. Lierse S.K. 47% | Draw 28% | Seraing United 25%, with K. Lierse S.K. to win its most likely call at 47%. Instead the game produced a Seraing United win, an outcome the model had rated at just 25% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 37%. The game delivered 1, so it stayed under — the model's lean was correct. Over 1.5 had been 64% and missed.

Lierse S.K. 49%, Seraing United 53%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 52%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality
