📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Cracovia Krakow beat Lech Poznan 1-4 at Stadion Poznan, Regular Season - 1, in the Ekstraklasa. The remainder of the report sets that outcome against the pre-match model, the markets and the teams' data profiles.

The Model vs The Result

The Poisson model went into this projecting Lech Poznan 1.95 xG and Cracovia Krakow 1.16 xG, a combined 3.11. The scoreboard read 1-4 for 5 actual goals. Lech Poznan fell 1.0 short of their projected output. Cracovia Krakow outscored their 1.16 projection by 2.8. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Lech Poznan attack 1.32 / defence 0.84 against Cracovia Krakow attack 1.00 / defence 0.97, drawn from 34/34 games (PrevSeason).
