📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Lausanne beat Grasshoppers 2-3 at Letzigrund Stadion, Regular Season - 29, 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 Grasshoppers 1.27 xG and Lausanne 1.25 xG, a combined 2.52. The scoreboard read 2-3 for 5 actual goals. Lausanne outscored their 1.25 projection by 1.7. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Grasshoppers attack 0.78 / defence 0.97 against Lausanne attack 0.88 / defence 0.95, drawn from 61/61 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Grasshoppers 34% | Draw 33% | Lausanne 33%, with Grasshoppers to win its most likely call at 34%. The actual Lausanne win had been the model's second-ranked read at 33%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 46%. The game delivered 5, so it went over — a miss for the goals model. Over 1.5 had been 75% and landed. Over 3.5 was 25% and came in. On both teams to score, the model sat at 55% and the match saw both sides score — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 56% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Grasshoppers 50%, Lausanne 62%), a base rate that agreed with today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 61%, which matched the both-scored outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Grasshoppers's trading profile (66 games, 32 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 58% of their matches — today it did.

Lausanne's trading profile (66 games, 32 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 64% of their matches — today it did.

Form vs Result

The form lines were close — Grasshoppers 0.98 PPG, Lausanne 1.30 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Lausanne win broke the near-deadlock. Grasshoppers (home/away splits) shipped 3 against a 1.25 concession average — a leakier day than usual. Lausanne (home/away splits) scored 3 against a 1.25 average — above their attacking norm.

Verdict

Grading the result against the stored data, 1 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (miss), BTTS (hit). A poor return for the projections: the match defied the majority of what the numbers expected.
