📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

GKS Katowice beat Lechia Gdansk 2-3 at Polsat Plus Arena Gdańsk, Regular Season - 34, 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 Lechia Gdansk 1.75 xG and GKS Katowice 1.24 xG, a combined 2.99. The scoreboard read 2-3 for 5 actual goals. GKS Katowice outscored their 1.24 projection by 1.8. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Lechia Gdansk attack 1.00 / defence 1.14 against GKS Katowice attack 0.88 / defence 1.11, drawn from 33/33 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Lechia Gdansk 49% | Draw 24% | GKS Katowice 27%, with Lechia Gdansk to win its most likely call at 49%. The actual GKS Katowice win had been the model's second-ranked read at 27%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 58%. The game delivered 5, so it went over — the model's lean was correct. Over 1.5 had been 80% and landed. Over 3.5 was 35% and came in. On both teams to score, the model sat at 59% and the match saw both sides score — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 56% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Lechia Gdansk 54%, GKS Katowice 58%), a base rate that agreed with today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 58%, which matched the both-scored outcome.
