📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Grasshoppers and Yverdon Sport finished level at 1-1 at Stadion Letzigrund, Regular Season - 17, in the Super League. 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 Grasshoppers 1.28 xG and Yverdon Sport 1.19 xG, a combined 2.47. The scoreboard read 1-1 for 2 actual goals. Both sides finished within a goal of their individual projections, so the scoreline sat close to the model's expected shape. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Grasshoppers attack 0.84 / defence 1.16 against Yverdon Sport attack 0.85 / defence 0.97, drawn from 49/49 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Grasshoppers 38% | Draw 29% | Yverdon Sport 34%, with Grasshoppers to win its most likely call at 38%. The actual draw had been the model's second-ranked read at 29%, so the result diverged from the top call without being a shock.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 45%. The game delivered 2, so it stayed under — in line with the projection. Over 1.5 had been 71% and landed.

Historically the two sides average 52% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Grasshoppers 44%, Yverdon Sport 59%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 55%, which matched the both-scored outcome.
