📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Corinthians and Palmeiras finished level at 1-1 at Neo Quimica Arena, Regular Season - 22, in the Serie A. 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 Corinthians 0.98 xG and Palmeiras 1.31 xG, a combined 2.29. The scoreboard read 1-1 for 2 actual goals. Both sides finished within a goal of their individual projections, so the scoreline sat close to the model's expected shape. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Corinthians attack 0.89 / defence 1.03 against Palmeiras attack 1.17 / defence 0.84, drawn from 59/57 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Corinthians 28% | Draw 28% | Palmeiras 44%, with Palmeiras 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

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 40%. The game delivered 2, so it stayed under — the model's lean was correct. Over 1.5 had been 67% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 46% and the match saw both sides score — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 47% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Corinthians 51%, Palmeiras 44%), a base rate that agreed with today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 46%, which did not match the both-scored outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Corinthians's trading profile (57 games, 28 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 53% of their matches — today it did.

Palmeiras's trading profile (57 games, 28 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 40% of their matches — today it did; they keep a clean sheet 42% of the time, and conceded here.

Form vs Result

On form, Palmeiras arrived the stronger side — 2.02 PPG against 1.40. The form guide was only half-right: the stronger side did not lose, but could not convert the edge into a win.

Verdict

Grading the result against the stored data, 1 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (miss), form (miss). A poor return for the projections: the match defied the majority of what the numbers expected.
