📝 Match Report

How It Unfolded

Al Ain beat Al Urooba 3-0 at Hazza Bin Zayed Stadium, Regular Season - 21, in the Pro League. 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 Al Ain 2.78 xG and Al Urooba 0.65 xG, a combined 3.42. The scoreboard read 3-0 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 Al Ain attack 1.29 / defence 0.86 against Al Urooba attack 0.55 / defence 1.49, drawn from 46/20 games (CurrentSeason).

On the result, the model split it Al Ain 82% | Draw 12% | Al Urooba 6%, with Al Ain to win its most likely call at 82%. That is exactly how it finished — the model's leading outcome was vindicated.

Goals & Markets
