📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Leyton Orient beat Cambridge United 2-0 at Gaughan Group Stadium, Regular Season - 23, in the League One. The remainder of the report sets that outcome against the pre-match model, the markets and the teams' data profiles.

The Model vs The Result

The Poisson model went into this projecting Leyton Orient 1.71 xG and Cambridge United 0.73 xG, a combined 2.44. The scoreboard read 2-0 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 Leyton Orient attack 1.01 / defence 0.77 against Cambridge United attack 0.81 / defence 1.33, drawn from 67/67 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Leyton Orient 61% | Draw 23% | Cambridge United 16%, with Leyton Orient to win its most likely call at 61%. The result followed the model's preferred path, landing its top-rated outcome.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 44%. The game delivered 2, so it stayed under — in line with the projection. Over 1.5 had been 70% and landed.

Historically the two sides average 44% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Leyton Orient 48%, Cambridge United 40%), a base rate that agreed with today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 39%, which matched the one-sided outcome.

Cambridge United's trading profile (67 games, 34 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 39% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 45% of games, a blank that repeated today.
