📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Lokeren-Temse beat Liège 0-1 at Stade de Rocourt, Regular Season - 18, in the Challenger Pro League. That is the final score; the rest of this report grades it against what the data forecast beforehand.

The Model vs The Result

The Poisson model went into this projecting Liège 1.59 xG and Lokeren-Temse 1.29 xG, a combined 2.88. The scoreboard read 0-1 for 1 actual goal. Liège fell 1.6 short of their projected output. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Liège attack 1.26 / defence 0.98 against Lokeren-Temse attack 1.00 / defence 0.97, drawn from 45/45 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Liège 44% | Draw 25% | Lokeren-Temse 31%, with Liège to win its most likely call at 44%. The actual Lokeren-Temse win had been the model's second-ranked read at 31%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 55%. The game delivered 1, so it stayed under — a miss for the goals model. Over 1.5 had been 78% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 58% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 50% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Liège 53%, Lokeren-Temse 47%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 53%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Liège's trading profile (45 games, 22 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 56% of their matches — today it did not.

Lokeren-Temse's trading profile (45 games, 22 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 51% of their matches — today it did not.

Form vs Result

The form lines were close — Liège 1.40 PPG, Lokeren-Temse 1.44 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Lokeren-Temse win broke the near-deadlock. Liège (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.64 scoring average — below par going forward. Lokeren-Temse (home/away splits) conceded 0 against a 1.18 average — tighter than their form line.

Verdict

Grading the result against the stored data, 0 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss). A poor return for the projections: the match defied the majority of what the numbers expected.
