1. FC Magdeburg beat 1. FC Nürnberg 3-0 at Avnet-Arena, Regular Season - 14, in the 2. Bundesliga. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.

The Model vs The Result

The Poisson model went into this projecting 1. FC Magdeburg 1.21 xG and 1. FC Nürnberg 1.74 xG, a combined 2.94. The scoreboard read 3-0 for 3 actual goals. 1. FC Magdeburg beat their projection by 1.8 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in. 1. FC Nürnberg landed 1.7 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of 1. FC Magdeburg attack 0.86 / defence 1.26 against 1. FC Nürnberg attack 1.06 / defence 0.96, drawn from 47/47 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it 1. FC Magdeburg 27% | Draw 24% | 1. FC Nürnberg 50%, with 1. FC Nürnberg to win its most likely call at 50%. The actual 1. FC Magdeburg win had been the model's second-ranked read at 27%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 56%. The game delivered 3, so it went over — a call the model got right. Over 1.5 had been 79% and landed.

FC Nürnberg 66%), a base rate that agreed with today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 60%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Form vs Result

Verdict
