How It Unfolded

O'Higgins beat U. Catolica 1-0 at Estadio El Teniente, Regular Season - 6, in the Primera División. 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 O'Higgins 1.38 xG and U. Catolica 1.23 xG, a combined 2.61. The scoreboard read 1-0 for 1 actual goal. U. Catolica landed 1.2 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of O'Higgins attack 0.93 / defence 0.90 against U. Catolica attack 1.31 / defence 1.06, drawn from 35/35 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it O'Higgins 40% | Draw 26% | U. Catolica 33%, with O'Higgins to win its most likely call at 40%. That is exactly how it finished — the model's leading outcome was vindicated.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 48%. The game delivered 1, so it stayed under — a call the model got right. Over 1.5 had been 73% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 53% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 47% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (O'Higgins 48%, U. Catolica 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

O'Higgins's trading profile (60 games, 30 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 47% of their matches — today it did not.

U. Catolica's trading profile (60 games, 30 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 48% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 35% of the time, and conceded here; they fail to score in 25% of games, a blank that repeated today.

Form vs Result

The form lines were close — O'Higgins 1.45 PPG, U. Catolica 1.73 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the O'Higgins win broke the near-deadlock. O'Higgins (home/away splits) conceded 0 against a 1.30 average — tighter than their form line. U. Catolica (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.20 scoring average — below par going forward.
