📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Galatasaray beat Başakşehir 1-2 at Başakşehir Fatih Terim Stadyumu, Regular Season - 19, in the Süper Lig. 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 Başakşehir 1.64 xG and Galatasaray 1.89 xG, a combined 3.54. The scoreboard read 1-2 for 3 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 Başakşehir attack 1.25 / defence 0.93 against Galatasaray attack 1.68 / defence 0.81, drawn from 55/55 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Başakşehir 32% | Draw 25% | Galatasaray 42%, with Galatasaray to win its most likely call at 42%. That is exactly how it finished — the model's leading outcome was vindicated.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 69%. The game delivered 3, so it went over — a call the model got right. Over 1.5 had been 88% and landed. Over 3.5 was 47% and did not. On both teams to score, the model sat at 70% and the match saw both sides score — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 57% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Başakşehir 44%, Galatasaray 71%), a base rate that agreed with today's over. Their combined BTTS history runs at 53%, which matched the both-scored outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Başakşehir's trading profile (55 games, 26 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 47% of their matches — today it did; they keep a clean sheet 31% of the time, and conceded here.

Galatasaray's trading profile (55 games, 26 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 58% of their matches — today it did; they keep a clean sheet 40% of the time, and conceded here.
