📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Peterborough and Leyton Orient finished level at 0-0 at Weston Homes Stadium, Regular Season - 27, 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 Peterborough 1.55 xG and Leyton Orient 2.20 xG, a combined 3.75. The scoreboard read 0-0 for 0 actual goals. Peterborough fell 1.5 short of their projected output. Leyton Orient landed 2.2 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Peterborough attack 1.32 / defence 1.55 against Leyton Orient attack 1.22 / defence 0.94, drawn from 70/70 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Peterborough 27% | Draw 21% | Leyton Orient 52%, with Leyton Orient to win its most likely call at 52%. Instead the game produced a draw, an outcome the model had rated at just 21% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 72%. The game delivered 0, so it stayed under — against the model's lean. Over 1.5 had been 89% and missed. Over 3.5 was 52% and did not. On both teams to score, the model sat at 70% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 59% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Peterborough 70%, Leyton Orient 47%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 52%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Peterborough's trading profile (70 games, 34 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 66% of their matches — today it did not.

Leyton Orient's trading profile (70 games, 34 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 39% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 37% of the time, and duly kept one; they fail to score in 34% of games, a blank that repeated today.

Form vs Result

The form lines were close — Peterborough 1.49 PPG, Leyton Orient 1.46 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the draw fit that even billing. Peterborough (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 2.29 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 1.44 average — tighter than their form line. Leyton Orient (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.24 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 1.09 average — tighter than their form line.

Verdict

Grading the result against the stored data, 0 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss). This one broke away from the data — most of the pre-match signals were overturned by how the ninety minutes actually played out.
