📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Feyenoord beat Utrecht 0-1 at Stadion Galgenwaard, Regular Season - 22, 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 Utrecht 1.50 xG and Feyenoord 1.27 xG, a combined 2.77. The scoreboard read 0-1 for 1 actual goal. Utrecht fell 1.5 short of their projected output. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Utrecht attack 0.91 / defence 0.82 against Feyenoord attack 1.08 / defence 0.98, drawn from 54/55 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Utrecht 43% | Draw 25% | Feyenoord 32%, with Utrecht to win its most likely call at 43%. The actual Feyenoord win had been the model's second-ranked read at 32%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 52%. The game delivered 1, so it stayed under — a miss for the goals model. Over 1.5 had been 76% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 56% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 61% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Utrecht 57%, Feyenoord 65%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 63%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Utrecht's trading profile (54 games, 27 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 65% of their matches — today it did not.

Feyenoord's trading profile (54 games, 27 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 61% of their matches — today it did not.

Form vs Result

The form lines were close — Utrecht 1.63 PPG, Feyenoord 1.96 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Feyenoord win broke the near-deadlock. Utrecht (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.70 scoring average — below par going forward. Feyenoord (home/away splits) managed 1 against a 2.22 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 1.26 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). A poor return for the projections: the match defied the majority of what the numbers expected.
