📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Cesena and Frosinone finished level at 2-2 at Stadio Dino Manuzzi, Regular Season - 30, in the Serie B. 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 Cesena 1.07 xG and Frosinone 2.07 xG, a combined 3.15. The scoreboard read 2-2 for 4 actual goals. Cesena beat their projection by 0.9 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Cesena attack 0.92 / defence 1.41 against Frosinone attack 1.32 / defence 0.89, drawn from 67/67 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Cesena 18% | Draw 22% | Frosinone 60%, with Frosinone to win its most likely call at 60%. Instead the game produced a draw, an outcome the model had rated at just 22% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 61%. The game delivered 4, so it went over — in line with the projection. Over 1.5 had been 83% and landed. Over 3.5 was 39% and came in. On both teams to score, the model sat at 58% and the match saw both sides score — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 47% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Cesena 45%, Frosinone 49%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 57%, which matched the both-scored outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Cesena's trading profile (67 games, 32 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 58% of their matches — today it did.

Frosinone's trading profile (67 games, 32 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 55% of their matches — today it did.

Form vs Result

The form lines were close — Cesena 1.33 PPG, Frosinone 1.51 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the draw fit that even billing. Frosinone (home/away splits) shipped 2 against a 1.00 concession average — a leakier day than usual.

Verdict

Grading the result against the stored data, 2 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (hit). Partial vindication: some calls landed, others slipped.
