📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Akron beat Baltika 0-1 at Rostec Arena, Regular Season - 27, in the Premier League. 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 Baltika 2.06 xG and Akron 1.06 xG, a combined 3.13. The scoreboard read 0-1 for 1 actual goal. Baltika fell 2.1 short of their projected output. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Baltika attack 1.08 / defence 0.94 against Akron attack 1.08 / defence 1.38, drawn from 26/56 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Baltika 60% | Draw 21% | Akron 19%, with Baltika to win its most likely call at 60%. Instead the game produced a Akron win, an outcome the model had rated at just 19% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 60%. The game delivered 1, so it stayed under — against the model's lean. Over 1.5 had been 82% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 57% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 38% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Baltika 27%, Akron 50%), a base rate that agreed with today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 56%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Baltika's trading profile (26 games, 12 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 38% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 54% of the time, and conceded here.

Akron's trading profile (26 games, 12 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 73% of their matches — today it did not.

Form vs Result

On form, Baltika arrived the stronger side — 1.77 PPG against 0.92. Form was overturned, with Akron winning despite arriving in poorer recent shape. Baltika (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.58 scoring average — below par going forward. Akron (home/away splits) conceded 0 against a 2.00 average — tighter than their form line.

Verdict

Grading the result against the stored data, 0 of 4 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (miss), form (miss). This one broke away from the data — most of the pre-match signals were overturned by how the ninety minutes actually played out.
