📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Hertha BSC beat 1. FC Kaiserslautern 0-1 at Fritz Walter Stadion, Regular Season - 12, in the 2. Bundesliga. 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 1. FC Kaiserslautern 1.74 xG and Hertha BSC 1.51 xG, a combined 3.24. The scoreboard read 0-1 for 1 actual goal. 1. FC Kaiserslautern fell 1.7 short of their projected output. Those figures were built on strength ratings of 1. FC Kaiserslautern attack 1.26 / defence 0.93 against Hertha BSC attack 1.21 / defence 0.92, drawn from 45/45 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it 1. FC Kaiserslautern 43% | Draw 23% | Hertha BSC 34%, with 1. FC Kaiserslautern to win its most likely call at 43%. The actual Hertha BSC win had been the model's second-ranked read at 34%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 63%. The game delivered 1, so it stayed under — a miss for the goals model. Over 1.5 had been 83% and missed. Over 3.5 was 41% and did not. On both teams to score, the model sat at 64% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 60% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (1. FC Kaiserslautern 67%, Hertha BSC 53%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 58%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

1. FC Kaiserslautern's trading profile (45 games, 22 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 60% of their matches — today it did not.

Hertha BSC's trading profile (45 games, 22 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 56% of their matches — today it did not.

Form vs Result

The form lines were close — 1. FC Kaiserslautern 1.62 PPG, Hertha BSC 1.36 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Hertha BSC win broke the near-deadlock. 1. FC Kaiserslautern (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 2.09 scoring average — below par going forward. Hertha BSC (home/away splits) conceded 0 against a 1.45 average — tighter than their form line.

Verdict
