📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Widzew Łódź beat GKS Katowice 1-0 at Stadion Miejski Widzewa Łódź, Regular Season - 25, 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 Widzew Łódź 1.25 xG and GKS Katowice 1.46 xG, a combined 2.71. The scoreboard read 1-0 for 1 actual goal. GKS Katowice landed 1.5 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Widzew Łódź attack 0.77 / defence 1.17 against GKS Katowice attack 1.03 / defence 1.13, drawn from 58/24 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Widzew Łódź 32% | Draw 26% | GKS Katowice 42%, with GKS Katowice to win its most likely call at 42%. The actual Widzew Łódź 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 51%. The game delivered 1, so it stayed under — against the model's lean. Over 1.5 had been 75% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 55% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 48% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Widzew Łódź 46%, GKS Katowice 50%), a base rate that agreed with today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 50%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Widzew Łódź's trading profile (24 games, 12 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 54% of their matches — today it did not.

GKS Katowice's trading profile (24 games, 12 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 46% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 33% of the time, and conceded here; they fail to score in 33% of games, a blank that repeated today.

Form vs Result

The form lines were close — Widzew Łódź 1.12 PPG, GKS Katowice 1.38 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Widzew Łódź win broke the near-deadlock. Widzew Łódź (home/away splits) conceded 0 against a 1.33 average — tighter than their form line. GKS Katowice (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.58 scoring average — below par going forward.

Verdict

Grading the result against the stored data, 0 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss). This one broke away from the data — most of the pre-match signals were overturned by how the ninety minutes actually played out.
