📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Union Berlin and RB Leipzig finished level at 0-0 at Stadion An der Alten Försterei, Regular Season - 20, in the 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 Union Berlin 1.49 xG and RB Leipzig 1.53 xG, a combined 3.01. The scoreboard read 0-0 for 0 actual goals. Union Berlin fell 1.5 short of their projected output. RB Leipzig landed 1.5 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Union Berlin attack 0.75 / defence 0.95 against RB Leipzig attack 1.12 / defence 1.11, drawn from 53/53 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Union Berlin 37% | Draw 24% | RB Leipzig 39%, with RB Leipzig to win its most likely call at 39%. Instead the game produced a draw, an outcome the model had rated at just 24% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 58%. The game delivered 0, so it stayed under — against the model's lean. Over 1.5 had been 80% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 61% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 56% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Union Berlin 45%, RB Leipzig 66%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 52%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Union Berlin's trading profile (53 games, 26 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 42% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 47% of games, a blank that repeated today.

RB Leipzig's trading profile (53 games, 26 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 62% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 34% of the time, and duly kept one.

Form vs Result

On form, RB Leipzig arrived the stronger side — 1.83 PPG against 1.00. The form guide was only half-right: the stronger side did not lose, but could not convert the edge into a win. Union Berlin (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.23 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 1.50 average — tighter than their form line. RB Leipzig (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 2.00 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 1.62 average — tighter than their form line.

Verdict

Grading the result against the stored data, 0 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss), form (miss). This one broke away from the data — most of the pre-match signals were overturned by how the ninety minutes actually played out.
