📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Zorya Luhansk beat Karpaty 1-0 at Stadion Valerija Lobanovskoho, Regular Season - 15, in the Premier 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 Zorya Luhansk 0.87 xG and Karpaty 1.27 xG, a combined 2.14. The scoreboard read 1-0 for 1 actual goal. Karpaty landed 1.3 under their projected return. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Zorya Luhansk attack 1.00 / defence 0.99 against Karpaty attack 0.96 / defence 0.79, drawn from 44/44 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Zorya Luhansk 25% | Draw 29% | Karpaty 46%, with Karpaty to win its most likely call at 46%. Instead the game produced a Zorya Luhansk win, an outcome the model had rated at just 25% — a clear break from expectation and a genuine upset by the numbers.

Goals & Markets

The model rated Over 2.5 goals at 36%. The game delivered 1, so it stayed under — in line with the projection. Over 1.5 had been 63% and missed. On both teams to score, the model sat at 42% and the match did not — another call in the model's favour. Historically the two sides average 52% Over 2.5 across their same-competition games (Zorya Luhansk 54%, Karpaty 50%), a base rate that pointed the other way from today's under. Their combined BTTS history runs at 51%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.

Trading Patterns vs Reality

Zorya Luhansk's trading profile (44 games, 21 home) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 54% of their matches — today it did not.

Karpaty's trading profile (44 games, 21 away) set some clear expectations: BTTS lands in 48% of their matches — today it did not; they keep a clean sheet 43% of the time, and conceded here.

Form vs Result

The form lines were close — Zorya Luhansk 1.36 PPG, Karpaty 1.48 PPG — offering no strong steer, and the Zorya Luhansk win broke the near-deadlock. Zorya Luhansk (home/away splits) conceded 0 against a 1.19 average — tighter than their form line. Karpaty (home/away splits) managed 0 against a 1.10 scoring average — below par going forward.

Verdict

Grading the result against the stored data, 2 of 3 pre-match signals came in: result (miss), Over 2.5 (hit), BTTS (hit). Partial vindication: some calls landed, others slipped.
