📝 Match Report
How It Unfolded
Parma beat Sassuolo 1-0 at Stadio Ennio Tardini, Regular Season - 38, in the Serie A. 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 Parma 1.10 xG and Sassuolo 1.18 xG, a combined 2.28. The scoreboard read 1-0 for 1 actual goal. Sassuolo landed 1.2 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Parma attack 0.83 / defence 1.17 against Sassuolo attack 0.86 / defence 1.09, drawn from 75/37 games (CurrentSeason).
On the result, the model split it Parma 34% | Draw 29% | Sassuolo 38%, with Sassuolo to win its most likely call at 38%. The actual Parma win had been the model's second-ranked read at 34%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
Goals & Markets
The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 40%. The game delivered 1, so it stayed under — in line with the projection. Over 1.5 had been 67% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 46% and the match did not — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 48% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Parma 43%, Sassuolo 53%), a base rate that agreed with today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 54%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.
Trading Patterns vs Reality
Parma's trading profile (75 games, 37 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 53% of their matches — today it did not.
Sassuolo's trading profile (75 games, 37 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 55% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 31% of the time, and conceded here.
Form vs Result
On form, Sassuolo arrived the stronger side — 1.75 PPG against 1.04. Form was overturned, with Parma winning despite arriving in poorer recent shape. Parma (home/away splits) conceded 0 against a 1.43 average — tighter than their form line. Sassuolo (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.51 scoring average — below par going forward.
