📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Torino beat Sassuolo 0-1 at MAPEI Stadium - Città del Tricolore, Regular Season - 16, 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 Sassuolo 1.38 xG and Torino 1.24 xG, a combined 2.62. The scoreboard read 0-1 for 1 actual goal. Sassuolo fell 1.4 short of their projected output. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Sassuolo attack 1.03 / defence 1.20 against Torino attack 0.93 / defence 1.09, drawn from 15/53 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Sassuolo 40% | Draw 26% | Torino 34%, with Sassuolo to win its most likely call at 40%. The actual Torino 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 49%. The game delivered 1, so it stayed under — the model's lean was correct. Over 1.5 had been 74% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 53% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 44% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Sassuolo 53%, Torino 36%), a base rate that agreed with today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 51%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Sassuolo's trading profile (53 games, 26 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 55% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 36% of the time, and conceded here.

Torino's trading profile (53 games, 26 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 47% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 30% of the time, and duly kept one.

Form vs Result

On form, Sassuolo arrived the stronger side — 1.94 PPG against 1.15. Form was overturned, with Torino winning despite arriving in poorer recent shape. Sassuolo (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 2.04 scoring average — below par going forward. Torino (home/away splits) conceded 0 against a 1.50 average — tighter than their form line.

Verdict

Grading the result against the stored data, 1 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (miss), form (miss). A poor return for the projections: the match defied the majority of what the numbers expected.
