📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Sevilla beat Rayo Vallecano 0-1 at Campo de Futbol de Vallecas, Regular Season - 7, in the La Liga. 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 Rayo Vallecano 1.36 xG and Sevilla 1.30 xG, a combined 2.67. The scoreboard read 0-1 for 1 actual goal. Rayo Vallecano fell 1.4 short of their projected output. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Rayo Vallecano attack 0.88 / defence 0.94 against Sevilla attack 1.22 / defence 1.07, drawn from 44/44 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Rayo Vallecano 37% | Draw 29% | Sevilla 34%, with Rayo Vallecano to win its most likely call at 37%. The actual Sevilla win had been the model's second-ranked read at 34%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 50%. The game delivered 1, so it stayed under — against the model's lean. Over 1.5 had been 76% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 56% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 44% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Rayo Vallecano 43%, Sevilla 46%), a base rate that agreed with today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 59%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Rayo Vallecano's trading profile (44 games, 21 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 59% of their matches — today it did not; they fail to score in 25% of games, a blank that repeated today.

Sevilla's trading profile (44 games, 21 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 59% of their matches — today it did not.

Form vs Result

The form lines were close — Rayo Vallecano 1.30 PPG, Sevilla 1.09 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Sevilla win broke the near-deadlock. Rayo Vallecano (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.24 scoring average — below par going forward. Sevilla (home/away splits) conceded 0 against a 1.62 average — tighter than their form line.

Verdict

Grading the result against the stored data, 1 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (hit), 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.
