📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Strasbourg beat Nantes 0-1 at Stade de la Beaujoire - Louis Fonteneau, Regular Season - 25, in the Ligue 1. 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 Nantes 1.19 xG and Strasbourg 1.41 xG, a combined 2.60. The scoreboard read 0-1 for 1 actual goal. Nantes fell 1.2 short of their projected output. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Nantes attack 0.91 / defence 1.01 against Strasbourg attack 0.99 / defence 0.85, drawn from 58/58 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Nantes 31% | Draw 28% | Strasbourg 41%, with Strasbourg to win its most likely call at 41%. The scoreboard confirmed the model's leading pick.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 48%. The game delivered 1, so it stayed under — the model's lean was correct. Over 1.5 had been 74% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 53% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 52% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Nantes 47%, Strasbourg 57%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 60%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Nantes's trading profile (58 games, 28 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 55% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 33% of games, a blank that repeated today.

Strasbourg's trading profile (58 games, 28 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 64% of their matches — today it did not.

Form vs Result

The form lines were close — Nantes 0.98 PPG, Strasbourg 1.31 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Strasbourg win broke the near-deadlock. Nantes (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.11 scoring average — below par going forward. Strasbourg (home/away splits) conceded 0 against a 1.57 average — tighter than their form line.

Verdict
