📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Leyton Orient beat Wrexham 1-2 at STōK Cae Ras, Regular Season - 31, in the League One. 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 Wrexham 1.29 xG and Leyton Orient 1.49 xG, a combined 2.78. The scoreboard read 1-2 for 3 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 Wrexham attack 1.11 / defence 0.93 against Leyton Orient attack 1.34 / defence 0.89, drawn from 30/76 games (CurrentSeason).
