The Model vs The Result

The Poisson model went into this projecting Sharjah FC 1.49 xG and Baniyas SC 0.81 xG, a combined 2.29. The scoreboard read 1-4 for 5 actual goals. Baniyas SC outscored their 0.81 projection by 3.2.

Their combined BTTS history runs at 42%, which did not match the both-scored outcome.
