📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

FC Eindhoven beat Emmen 1-0 at Jan Louwers Stadion, Regular Season - 33, in the Eerste Divisie. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.

The Model vs The Result

The Poisson model went into this projecting FC Eindhoven 2.29 xG and Emmen 1.33 xG, a combined 3.62. The scoreboard read 1-0 for 1 actual goal. FC Eindhoven fell 1.3 short of their projected output. Emmen landed 1.3 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of FC Eindhoven attack 1.24 / defence 1.02 against Emmen attack 0.86 / defence 1.20, drawn from 70/70 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it FC Eindhoven 59% | Draw 20% | Emmen 21%, with FC Eindhoven to win its most likely call at 59%. That is exactly how it finished — the model's leading outcome was vindicated.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 70%. The game delivered 1, so it stayed under — the opposite of the projected direction. Over 1.5 had been 88% and missed. Over 3.5 was 49% and did not. On both teams to score, the model sat at 66% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 62% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (FC Eindhoven 63%, Emmen 61%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 51%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

FC Eindhoven's trading profile (70 games, 34 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 49% of their matches — today it did not.

Emmen's trading profile (70 games, 34 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 54% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 27% of games, a blank that repeated today.

Form vs Result

The form lines were close — FC Eindhoven 1.30 PPG, Emmen 1.33 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the FC Eindhoven win broke the near-deadlock. FC Eindhoven (home/away splits) conceded 0 against a 1.79 average — tighter than their form line. Emmen (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.26 scoring average — below par going forward.

Verdict

Grading the result against the stored data, 1 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (hit), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss). The data was on the wrong side of this result more often than not — a reminder that a single match sits well inside the model's variance.
