📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

The points were shared at Stade de la Licorne, Regular Season - 5, as Amiens and Bastia drew 0-0 in the Ligue 2. 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 Amiens 1.30 xG and Bastia 1.04 xG, a combined 2.34. The scoreboard read 0-0 for 0 actual goals. Amiens fell 1.3 short of their projected output. Bastia landed 1.0 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Amiens attack 0.98 / defence 1.17 against Bastia attack 0.81 / defence 1.01, drawn from 38/37 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Amiens 42% | Draw 28% | Bastia 30%, with Amiens to win its most likely call at 42%. The actual draw had been the model's second-ranked read at 28%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 41%. The game delivered 0, so it stayed under — in line with the projection. Over 1.5 had been 68% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 47% and the match did not — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 45% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Amiens 51%, Bastia 38%), a base rate that agreed with today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 51%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Amiens's trading profile (37 games, 18 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 51% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 30% of games, a blank that repeated today.

Bastia's trading profile (37 games, 18 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 51% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 32% of the time, and duly kept one; they fail to score in 30% of games, a blank that repeated today.

Form vs Result

The form lines were close — Amiens 1.22 PPG, Bastia 1.32 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the draw fit that even billing. Amiens (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.39 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 1.28 average — tighter than their form line. Bastia (home/away splits) conceded 0 against a 1.33 average — tighter than their form line.

Verdict

Grading the result against the stored data, 2 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (hit). Partial vindication: some calls landed, others slipped.
