📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Hull City beat Wrexham 2-0 at MKM Stadium, Regular Season - 20, in the Championship. 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 Hull City 1.13 xG and Wrexham 1.25 xG, a combined 2.38. The scoreboard read 2-0 for 2 actual goals. Hull City beat their projection by 0.9 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in. Wrexham landed 1.3 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Hull City attack 1.01 / defence 1.32 against Wrexham attack 0.78 / defence 0.82, drawn from 65/19 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Hull City 33% | Draw 29% | Wrexham 39%, with Wrexham to win its most likely call at 39%. The actual Hull City win had been the model's second-ranked read at 33%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 43%. The game delivered 2, so it stayed under — the model's lean was correct. Over 1.5 had been 69% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 49% and the match did not — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 42% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Hull City 43%, Wrexham 42%), a base rate that agreed with today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 52%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Hull City's trading profile (65 games, 32 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 57% of their matches — today it did not.

Wrexham's trading profile (65 games, 32 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 48% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 46% of the time, and conceded here.

Form vs Result

On form, Wrexham arrived the stronger side — 1.83 PPG against 1.18. Form was overturned, with Hull City winning despite arriving in poorer recent shape. Hull City (home/away splits) conceded 0 against a 1.41 average — tighter than their form line. Wrexham (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.09 scoring average — below par going forward and shipped 2 against a 0.84 concession average — a leakier day than usual.

Verdict

Grading the result against the stored data, 2 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (hit), form (miss). A mixed scorecard — the data caught the broad shape of the game but not every market.
