How It Unfolded

Sharjah FC beat Ajman 0-1 at Ajman Stadium, Regular Season - 9, in the Pro 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 Ajman 1.53 xG and Sharjah FC 1.55 xG, a combined 3.08. The scoreboard read 0-1 for 1 actual goal. Ajman fell 1.5 short of their projected output. Those figures were built on strength ratings of Ajman attack 0.99 / defence 0.85 against Sharjah FC attack 1.21 / defence 0.83, drawn from 34/34 games (CurrentSeason).

Goals & Markets

Their combined BTTS history runs at 68%, which did not match the one-sided outcome.
