📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

AC Milan beat Hellas Verona 0-1 at Stadio Marcantonio Bentegodi, Regular Season - 33, in the Serie A. 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 Hellas Verona 0.66 xG and AC Milan 1.61 xG, a combined 2.28. The scoreboard read 0-1 for 1 actual goal. Both sides finished within a goal of their individual projections, so the scoreline sat close to the model's expected shape. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Hellas Verona attack 0.69 / defence 1.26 against AC Milan attack 1.11 / defence 0.76, drawn from 70/70 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Hellas Verona 15% | Draw 25% | AC Milan 60%, with AC Milan to win its most likely call at 60%. The scoreboard confirmed the model's leading pick.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 40%. The game delivered 1, so it stayed under — the model's lean was correct. Over 1.5 had been 66% and missed.

Historically the two sides average 53% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Hellas Verona 53%, AC Milan 53%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 49%, which matched the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Hellas Verona's trading profile (70 games, 34 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 46% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 47% of games, a blank that repeated today.

AC Milan's trading profile (70 games, 34 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 53% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 37% of the time, and duly kept one.

Form vs Result

On form, AC Milan arrived the stronger side — 1.80 PPG against 0.79. The form guide was vindicated by the result. AC Milan (home/away splits) conceded 0 against a 1.06 average — tighter than their form line.
