The Model vs The Result

The Poisson model went into this projecting RB Bragantino 1.07 xG and Sao Paulo 1.03 xG, a combined 2.10. 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 RB Bragantino attack 0.86 / defence 0.98 against Sao Paulo attack 1.07 / defence 0.93, drawn from 71/71 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it RB Bragantino 36% | Draw 30% | Sao Paulo 34%, with RB Bragantino to win its most likely call at 36%. The actual draw had been the model's second-ranked read at 30%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
