📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

FC Volendam beat PSV Eindhoven 2-1 at Kras Stadion, Regular Season - 23, in the Eredivisie. 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 FC Volendam 1.02 xG and PSV Eindhoven 2.00 xG, a combined 3.02. The scoreboard read 2-1 for 3 actual goals. FC Volendam beat their projection by 1.0 — clinical relative to the chances the model priced in. PSV Eindhoven landed 1.0 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of FC Volendam attack 0.85 / defence 0.97 against PSV Eindhoven attack 1.42 / defence 0.74, drawn from 22/56 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it FC Volendam 19% | Draw 21% | PSV Eindhoven 60%, with PSV Eindhoven to win its most likely call at 60%. Instead the game produced a FC Volendam win, an outcome the model had rated at just 19% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 58%. The game delivered 3, so it went over — the model's lean was correct. Over 1.5 had been 80% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 55% and the match saw both sides score — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 78% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (FC Volendam 71%, PSV Eindhoven 84%), a base rate that agreed with today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 66%, which matched the both-scored outcome.
