The Model vs The Result

The Poisson model went into this projecting Girona 1.03 xG and Atletico Madrid 1.28 xG, a combined 2.31. The scoreboard read 0-3 for 3 actual goals. Girona fell 1.0 short of their projected output.

Their combined BTTS history runs at 52%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Atletico Madrid's trading profile (54 games, 26 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 48% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 43% of the time, and duly kept one.

Form vs Result

Girona (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.19 scoring average — below par going forward and shipped 3 against a 1.69 concession average — a leakier day than usual. Atletico Madrid (home/away splits) scored 3 against a 1.23 average — above their attacking norm and conceded 0 against a 0.85 average — tighter than their form line.
