📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Kalmar FF beat GIF Sundsvall 1-0 at Guldfågeln Arena, Regular Season - 2, in the Superettan. 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 Kalmar FF 1.08 xG and GIF Sundsvall 1.32 xG, a combined 2.39. The scoreboard read 1-0 for 1 actual goal. GIF Sundsvall landed 1.3 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Kalmar FF attack 0.87 / defence 1.15 against GIF Sundsvall attack 0.97 / defence 1.01, drawn from 1/31 games (Blended).

On the result, the model split it Kalmar FF 30% | Draw 27% | GIF Sundsvall 42%, with GIF Sundsvall to win its most likely call at 42%. The actual Kalmar FF win had been the model's second-ranked read at 30%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 43%. The game delivered 1, so it stayed under — a call the model got right. Over 1.5 had been 69% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 48% and the match did not — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 50% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Kalmar FF 50%, GIF Sundsvall 50%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 47%, which matched the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Kalmar FF's trading profile (30 games, 15 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 47% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 30% of the time, and duly kept one.

GIF Sundsvall's trading profile (30 games, 15 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 47% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 30% of the time, and conceded here; they fail to score in 37% of games, a blank that repeated today.

Form vs Result

The form lines were close — Kalmar FF 1.50 PPG, GIF Sundsvall 1.23 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Kalmar FF win broke the near-deadlock. Kalmar FF (home/away splits) conceded 0 against a 1.20 average — tighter than their form line.
