Rayo Vallecano beat Getafe 0-2 at Coliseum, Regular Season - 34, in the La Liga. With the result on the board, the sections below measure it against everything the model and the numbers projected in advance.

The Model vs The Result

The Poisson model went into this projecting Getafe 1.15 xG and Rayo Vallecano 0.68 xG, a combined 1.82. The scoreboard read 0-2 for 2 actual goals. Getafe fell 1.1 short of their projected output. Rayo Vallecano outscored their 0.68 projection by 1.3. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Getafe attack 0.71 / defence 0.81 against Rayo Vallecano attack 0.71 / defence 1.05, drawn from 71/71 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Getafe 47% | Draw 31% | Rayo Vallecano 22%, with Getafe to win its most likely call at 47%. Instead the game produced a Rayo Vallecano win, an outcome the model had rated at just 22% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 28%. The game delivered 2, so it stayed under — a call the model got right. Over 1.5 had been 54% and landed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 34% and the match did not — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 37% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Getafe 31%, Rayo Vallecano 42%), a base rate that agreed with today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 44%, which matched the one-sided outcome.

Getafe's trading profile (71 games, 35 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 37% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 42% of games, a blank that repeated today.
