The Model vs The Result

On the result, the model split it SK Beveren 44% | Draw 28% | RAAL La Louvière 28%, with SK Beveren to win its most likely call at 44%. The actual draw had been the model's second-ranked read at 28%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.

Goals & Markets

Historically the two sides average 44% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (SK Beveren 38%, RAAL La Louvière 50%), a base rate that agreed with today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 47%, which matched the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

SK Beveren's trading profile (16 games, 8 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 31% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 44% of the time, and duly kept one; they fail to score in 44% of games, a blank that repeated today.

SK Beveren (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.38 scoring average — below par going forward. RAAL La Louvière (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.75 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 1.12 average — tighter than their form line.
