📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

The points were shared at Estadio de La Cartuja, Regular Season - 30, as Real Betis and Espanyol drew 0-0 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 Real Betis 2.08 xG and Espanyol 1.30 xG, a combined 3.38. The scoreboard read 0-0 for 0 actual goals. Real Betis fell 2.1 short of their projected output. Espanyol landed 1.3 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Real Betis attack 1.12 / defence 1.03 against Espanyol attack 1.11 / defence 1.19, drawn from 67/67 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Real Betis 55% | Draw 21% | Espanyol 24%, with Real Betis to win its most likely call at 55%. Instead the game produced a draw, an outcome the model had rated at just 21% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 66%. The game delivered 0, so it stayed under — against the model's lean. Over 1.5 had been 85% and missed. Over 3.5 was 44% and did not. On both teams to score, the model sat at 64% and the match did not — a miss on BTTS. Historically the two sides average 49% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Real Betis 52%, Espanyol 46%), a base rate that agreed with today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 63%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Real Betis's trading profile (67 games, 33 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 69% of their matches — today it did not.

Espanyol's trading profile (67 games, 33 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 58% of their matches — today it did not.

Form vs Result

The form lines were close — Real Betis 1.55 PPG, Espanyol 1.18 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the draw fit that even billing. Real Betis (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.76 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 1.12 average — tighter than their form line. Espanyol (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.06 scoring average — below par going forward and conceded 0 against a 1.64 average — tighter than their form line.

Verdict

Grading the result against the stored data, 0 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), 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.
