📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Palmeiras and Vitoria finished level at 0-0 at Allianz Parque, Regular Season - 37, 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 Palmeiras 2.94 xG and Vitoria 0.71 xG, a combined 3.65. The scoreboard read 0-0 for 0 actual goals. Palmeiras fell 2.9 short of their projected output. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Palmeiras attack 1.48 / defence 0.77 against Vitoria attack 0.91 / defence 1.41, drawn from 71/71 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Palmeiras 82% | Draw 12% | Vitoria 6%, with Palmeiras to win its most likely call at 82%. Instead the game produced a draw, an outcome the model had rated at just 12% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 71%. The game delivered 0, so it stayed under — a miss for the goals model. Over 1.5 had been 88% and missed. Over 3.5 was 50% and did not. On both teams to score, the model sat at 48% and the match did not — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 46% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Palmeiras 46%, Vitoria 45%), a base rate that agreed with today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 48%, which matched the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Palmeiras's trading profile (71 games, 35 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 44% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 39% of the time, and duly kept one.

Vitoria's trading profile (71 games, 35 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 52% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 30% of games, a blank that repeated today.

Form vs Result

On form, Palmeiras arrived the stronger side — 1.99 PPG against 1.15. The form guide was only half-right: the stronger side did not lose, but could not convert the edge into a win. Palmeiras (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.97 scoring average — below par going forward. Vitoria (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 0.94 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 1.74 average — tighter than their form line.

Verdict

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