How It Unfolded

The Model vs The Result

The Poisson model went into this projecting Borussia Dortmund 2.74 xG and Holstein Kiel 1.29 xG, a combined 4.03. The scoreboard read 3-0 for 3 actual goals. Holstein Kiel landed 1.3 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Borussia Dortmund attack 1.45 / defence 0.86 against Holstein Kiel attack 1.01 / defence 1.23, drawn from 67/33 games (CurrentSeason).

Form vs Result

Holstein Kiel (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.73 scoring average — below par going forward and shipped 3 against a 1.48 concession average — a leakier day than usual.
