📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Atletico Goianiense beat Fortaleza EC 3-1 at Estádio Antônio Accioly, Regular Season - 37, in the Serie A. 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 Atletico Goianiense 0.90 xG and Fortaleza EC 1.15 xG, a combined 2.04. The scoreboard read 3-1 for 4 actual goals. Atletico Goianiense beat their projection by 2.1 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Atletico Goianiense attack 0.59 / defence 1.00 against Fortaleza EC attack 1.10 / defence 1.14, drawn from 36/74 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Atletico Goianiense 27% | Draw 34% | Fortaleza EC 40%, with Fortaleza EC to win its most likely call at 40%. The actual Atletico Goianiense win had been the model's second-ranked read at 27%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 33%. The game delivered 4, so it went over — the opposite of the projected direction. Over 1.5 had been 62% and landed. Over 3.5 was 15% and came in. On both teams to score, the model sat at 42% and the match saw both sides score — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 43% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Atletico Goianiense 42%, Fortaleza EC 44%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 50%, which matched the both-scored outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Atletico Goianiense's trading profile (36 games, 18 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 47% of their matches — today it did.

Fortaleza EC's trading profile (36 games, 18 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 53% of their matches — today it did; they keep a clean sheet 33% of the time, and conceded here.

Form vs Result

Fortaleza EC (home/away splits) shipped 3 against a 1.56 concession average — a leakier day than usual.
