📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Vitesse beat Jong Utrecht 0-2 at Stadion Galgenwaard, Regular Season - 31, 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 Jong Utrecht 1.86 xG and Vitesse 1.85 xG, a combined 3.71. The scoreboard read 0-2 for 2 actual goals. Jong Utrecht fell 1.9 short of their projected output. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Jong Utrecht attack 0.75 / defence 1.32 against Vitesse attack 1.09 / defence 1.49, drawn from 66/29 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Jong Utrecht 39% | Draw 22% | Vitesse 39%, with Jong Utrecht to win its most likely call at 39%. The actual Vitesse win had been the model's second-ranked read at 39%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 72%. The game delivered 2, so it stayed under — the opposite of the projected direction. Over 1.5 had been 89% and landed. Over 3.5 was 51% and did not. On both teams to score, the model sat at 71% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 58% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Jong Utrecht 52%, Vitesse 64%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 55%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Jong Utrecht's trading profile (63 games, 31 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 54% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 43% of games, a blank that repeated today.

Vitesse's trading profile (63 games, 31 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 56% of their matches — today it did not.

Form vs Result

The form lines were close — Jong Utrecht 0.65 PPG, Vitesse 0.89 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Vitesse win broke the near-deadlock. Jong Utrecht (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 0.87 scoring average — below par going forward. Vitesse (home/away splits) scored 2 against a 1.19 average — above their attacking norm and conceded 0 against a 2.58 average — tighter than their form line.

Verdict

Grading the result against the stored data, 0 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), 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.
