📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Union St. Gilloise beat Anderlecht 2-0 at Stade Joseph Marien, Regular Season - 6, in the Jupiler 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 Union St. Gilloise 1.55 xG and Anderlecht 1.00 xG, a combined 2.55. The scoreboard read 2-0 for 2 actual goals. Anderlecht landed 1.0 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Union St. Gilloise attack 1.48 / defence 0.76 against Anderlecht attack 1.20 / defence 0.70, drawn from 35/34 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Union St. Gilloise 48% | Draw 30% | Anderlecht 22%, with Union St. Gilloise to win its most likely call at 48%. The scoreboard confirmed the model's leading pick.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 47%. The game delivered 2, so it stayed under — the model's lean was correct. Over 1.5 had been 75% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 52% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 51% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Union St. Gilloise 54%, Anderlecht 48%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 41%, which matched the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Union St. Gilloise's trading profile (44 games, 22 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 46% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 50% of the time, and duly kept one.

Anderlecht's trading profile (44 games, 22 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 36% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 43% of the time, and conceded here; they fail to score in 30% of games, a blank that repeated today.

Form vs Result

On form, Union St. Gilloise arrived the stronger side — 2.11 PPG against 1.59. The form guide was vindicated by the result. Anderlecht (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.32 scoring average — below par going forward and shipped 2 against a 0.86 concession average — a leakier day than usual.

Verdict

Grading the result against the stored data, 3 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (hit), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (miss), form (hit). A mixed scorecard — the data caught the broad shape of the game but not every market.
