📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

SpVgg Greuther Fürth beat Hannover 96 1-0 at Sportpark Ronhof Thomas Sommer, Regular Season - 16, in the 2. Bundesliga. 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 SpVgg Greuther Fürth 1.43 xG and Hannover 96 1.71 xG, a combined 3.14. The scoreboard read 1-0 for 1 actual goal. Hannover 96 landed 1.7 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of SpVgg Greuther Fürth attack 0.92 / defence 1.25 against Hannover 96 attack 0.90 / defence 1.02, drawn from 49/49 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it SpVgg Greuther Fürth 30% | Draw 29% | Hannover 96 42%, with Hannover 96 to win its most likely call at 42%. The actual SpVgg Greuther Fürth win had been the model's second-ranked read at 30%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.

Goals & Markets

Historically the two sides average 58% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (SpVgg Greuther Fürth 55%, Hannover 96 61%), 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.
