Den Bosch and Jong PSV U21 finished level at 1-1 at Stadion De Vliert, Regular Season - 19, in the Eerste Divisie. 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 Den Bosch 1.63 xG and Jong PSV U21 1.46 xG, a combined 3.09. The scoreboard read 1-1 for 2 actual goals. 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 Den Bosch attack 1.07 / defence 1.13 against Jong PSV U21 attack 0.91 / defence 0.99, drawn from 56/56 games (CurrentSeason).
