The points were shared at Arena Katowice, Regular Season - 33, as GKS Katowice and Lech Poznan drew 2-2 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 GKS Katowice 1.22 xG and Lech Poznan 1.30 xG, a combined 2.52. The scoreboard read 2-2 for 4 actual goals. Both sides finished within a goal of their individual projections, so the scoreline sat close to the model's expected shape. Those figures were built on strength ratings of GKS Katowice attack 0.90 / defence 0.98 against Lech Poznan attack 1.06 / defence 0.87, drawn from 32/66 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it GKS Katowice 35% | Draw 27% | Lech Poznan 38%, with Lech Poznan to win its most likely call at 38%. The actual draw had been the model's second-ranked read at 27%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.
