The Model vs The Result

The Poisson model went into this projecting Ilves 2.99 xG and AC Oulu 1.43 xG, a combined 4.42. The scoreboard read 0-0 for 0 actual goals. Ilves fell 3.0 short of their projected output.

On the result, the model split it Ilves 69% | Draw 15% | AC Oulu 16%, with Ilves to win its most likely call at 69%. Instead the game produced a draw, an outcome the model had rated at just 15% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 82%. The game delivered 0, so it stayed under — the opposite of the projected direction. Over 1.5 had been 93% and missed. Over 3.5 was 64% and did not. On both teams to score, the model sat at 72% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 55% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Ilves 48%, AC Oulu 61%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 56%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Ilves's trading profile (54 games, 26 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 48% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 37% of the time, and duly kept one.

Form vs Result

On form, Ilves arrived the stronger side — 1.61 PPG against 1.17. The form guide was only half-right: the stronger side did not lose, but could not convert the edge into a win. Ilves (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 2.00 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 1.27 average — tighter than their form line. AC Oulu (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.31 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 2.12 average — tighter than their form line.

Verdict

Grading the result against the stored data, 0 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss), form (miss). The data was on the wrong side of this result more often than not — a reminder that a single match sits well inside the model's variance.
