📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Cracovia Krakow beat GKS Katowice 1-0 at Stadion Cracovii im. Jozefa Pilsudskiego, Regular Season - 26, in the Ekstraklasa. 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 Cracovia Krakow 1.20 xG and GKS Katowice 1.39 xG, a combined 2.58. The scoreboard read 1-0 for 1 actual goal. GKS Katowice landed 1.4 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Cracovia Krakow attack 0.91 / defence 1.15 against GKS Katowice attack 1.06 / defence 0.93, drawn from 59/59 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Cracovia Krakow 31% | Draw 28% | GKS Katowice 40%, with GKS Katowice to win its most likely call at 40%. The actual Cracovia Krakow win had been the model's second-ranked read at 31%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 48%. The game delivered 1, so it stayed under — the model's lean was correct. Over 1.5 had been 74% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 53% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 55% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Cracovia Krakow 54%, GKS Katowice 56%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 57%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Cracovia Krakow's trading profile (59 games, 29 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 64% of their matches — today it did not.

GKS Katowice's trading profile (59 games, 29 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 49% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 29% of games, a blank that repeated today.

Form vs Result

The form lines were close — Cracovia Krakow 1.42 PPG, GKS Katowice 1.44 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Cracovia Krakow win broke the near-deadlock. Cracovia Krakow (home/away splits) conceded 0 against a 1.48 average — tighter than their form line. GKS Katowice (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.38 scoring average — below par going forward.

Verdict

Grading the result against the stored data, 1 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (miss). A poor return for the projections: the match defied the majority of what the numbers expected.
