Palmeiras beat Atletico-MG 3-2 at Allianz Parque, Regular Season - 15, in the Serie A. The remainder of the report sets that outcome against the pre-match model, the markets and the teams' data profiles.

The Model vs The Result

The Poisson model went into this projecting Palmeiras 1.02 xG and Atletico-MG 0.85 xG, a combined 1.86. The scoreboard read 3-2 for 5 actual goals.
