FC Basel 1893 beat Grasshoppers 1-0 at St. Jakob-Park, Regular Season - 28, in the Super League. That is the final score; the rest of this report grades it against what the data forecast beforehand.

The Model vs The Result

The Poisson model went into this projecting FC Basel 1893 1.47 xG and Grasshoppers 1.02 xG, a combined 2.50. The scoreboard read 1-0 for 1 actual goal.
