📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Grenoble beat Estac Troyes 1-0 at Stade des Alpes, Regular Season - 34, in the Ligue 2. 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 Grenoble 0.86 xG and Estac Troyes 1.19 xG, a combined 2.05. The scoreboard read 1-0 for 1 actual goal. Estac Troyes landed 1.2 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Grenoble attack 0.81 / defence 0.88 against Estac Troyes attack 1.08 / defence 0.88, drawn from 67/67 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Grenoble 25% | Draw 34% | Estac Troyes 41%, with Estac Troyes to win its most likely call at 41%. Instead the game produced a Grenoble win, an outcome the model had rated at just 25% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 34%. The game delivered 1, so it stayed under — the model's lean was correct. Over 1.5 had been 63% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 42% and the match did not — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 50% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Grenoble 48%, Estac Troyes 52%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 46%, which matched the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Grenoble's trading profile (67 games, 33 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 54% of their matches — today it did not.

Estac Troyes's trading profile (67 games, 33 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 39% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 40% of the time, and conceded here; they fail to score in 31% of games, a blank that repeated today.

Form vs Result

On form, Estac Troyes arrived the stronger side — 1.66 PPG against 1.22. Form was overturned, with Grenoble winning despite arriving in poorer recent shape. Grenoble (home/away splits) conceded 0 against a 0.94 average — tighter than their form line. Estac Troyes (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.15 scoring average — below par going forward.

Verdict

Grading the result against the stored data, 2 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (hit), form (miss). A mixed scorecard — the data caught the broad shape of the game but not every market.
