📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Zenit beat Dynamo 2-1 at Gazprom Arena, Regular Season - 13, 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 Zenit 2.09 xG and Dynamo 1.20 xG, a combined 3.29. The scoreboard read 2-1 for 3 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 Zenit attack 1.44 / defence 0.93 against Dynamo attack 1.10 / defence 1.03, drawn from 42/42 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Zenit 56% | Draw 24% | Dynamo 20%, with Zenit to win its most likely call at 56%. The result followed the model's preferred path, landing its top-rated outcome.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 64%. The game delivered 3, so it went over — in line with the projection. Over 1.5 had been 86% and landed. Over 3.5 was 42% and did not. On both teams to score, the model sat at 63% and the match saw both sides score — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 55% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Zenit 50%, Dynamo 60%), a base rate that agreed with today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 56%, which matched the both-scored outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Zenit's trading profile (42 games, 20 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 43% of their matches — today it did; they keep a clean sheet 52% of the time, and conceded here.

Dynamo's trading profile (42 games, 20 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 69% of their matches — today it did.

Form vs Result

Verdict
