📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

The points were shared at Mestsky stadion Miroslava Valenty, Regular Season - 12, as Slovácko and Sparta Praha drew 0-0 in the Czech Liga. 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 Slovácko 0.85 xG and Sparta Praha 1.77 xG, a combined 2.62. The scoreboard read 0-0 for 0 actual goals. Slovácko fell 0.9 short of their projected output. Sparta Praha landed 1.8 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Slovácko attack 0.80 / defence 1.15 against Sparta Praha attack 1.30 / defence 0.87, drawn from 41/41 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Slovácko 15% | Draw 28% | Sparta Praha 57%, with Sparta Praha to win its most likely call at 57%. 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 49%. The game delivered 0, so it stayed under — the model's lean was correct. Over 1.5 had been 76% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 50% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 50% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Slovácko 39%, Sparta Praha 61%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 55%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Slovácko's trading profile (46 games, 23 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 41% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 48% of games, a blank that repeated today.

Sparta Praha's trading profile (46 games, 23 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 70% of their matches — today it did not.

Form vs Result

On form, Sparta Praha arrived the stronger side — 1.93 PPG against 0.98. The form guide was only half-right: the stronger side did not lose, but could not convert the edge into a win. Slovácko (home/away splits) conceded 0 against a 1.22 average — tighter than their form line. Sparta Praha (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.70 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 1.13 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 (hit), BTTS (miss), form (miss). A poor return for the projections: the match defied the majority of what the numbers expected.
